Yesterday I assembled a flat-pack book case.
Then Joe came to me and asked me to help him put his bed together.
Finally I fixed a set of shelves to the wall. I'm telling you people- this involved the use of an electric drill!
Oh yeah- and Joe splashed paint over one of his CDs and threw it in the bin. "Don't do that," I said, "give it me here." He retrieved it from the bin and I ran it under the tap and it came up good as new.
Respect!

Then she'd be well and truly stuck.
