Today we went to Ikea in Croydon. I'm actually one of those strange people who doesn't mind Ikea at the weekend. We even went on a Bank Holiday Monday once! Anyway, the law of Ikea does state that you have to have meatballs on the way in and a hotdog on the way out so that always makes for a nice afternoon out. I also have a thing about napkins at the moment and ended up leaving there with four packets of them! Whenever we go there I end up buying loads. It used to be candles but I think napkins are more useful now!
And of course never being one to miss a photo opportunity I even took a couple of photos of the famous chimneys outside. They were literally just snapshots though so not sure if they are bloggable but I may show you at some point. Instead I found this fun photo that was taken in an Ikea. I just love the boldness of it and that bright green is fantastic. It really does sum up the place.
I hope you all had great weekend!

ReplyDeleteYou brave woman you! Ikea on the wkends is like walking into a war zone, someone's bound to get hurt.
ReplyDeleteI live 10 mins from the Croydon Ikea and the huge chimneys! I'm so sad I know their complete inventory and can write a shopping list in order of what I'll come to first. I never eat the rubber hotdogs though!
