Why do all men think that they are naturally good at DIY?
Well to answer this question, there is a formula that everyone can use to find out if they are good at DIY…
Intelligence + Ability to read instructions - Making it up as you go along = Good at D.I.Y
My dad has been looking around for a new shelving unit & wardrobe on the internet.
I have been helping him find the best value for money shelving unit & he says he will do the rest.
Now, if you’re like me & thinking ohh Jee Wizz, 90% of dads are rubbish at D.I.Y then you would be thinking exactly the same thing as me.
My dad uses brown tape on EVERYTHING and it something needs holding together he will use BLUE rope – the kind that is used for outdoor festivals and holding bundles of hay together.
My dad is like Homer Simpson when it comes to anything D.I.Y – makes it up as he goes along.
It’s very funny to watch his brain working away and getting himself more and more away from the instructions that are clearly laid out in front of him.
I might just have to pop round when he has his “thinking cap” on and starts to assemble the kitchen unit and the wardrobe. That should give me hours of hilarity if nothing else.
