Finding the keys to a good night's sleep!

Despite over 100 coach visits this was my mission debut. I chose it because it was a simple bed move that required no manual or DIY skills whatsoever as I possess none. However, when we got there we realised that the bed would need to be disassembled and reassembled in order to move it to where Mr T needed it. Ironically, for him to get a good night's sleep is my worst nightmare - DIY! Fortunately on hand was my fellow Goodgymmer, long time Mission expert and DIY champion Marta! She calmly assessed the situation and identified that the key to making this a successful mission was in fact an Allen key! Sadly with none in sight it looked like my first mission would end in failure. No way! Time to tap into the only thing I'm good at, knowing lots of local people! 5 minutes later, Will from the wonderful Longfield Hall emerged with the Allen key and Marta did the rest! Mission accomplished! The keys to a good night's sleep? Team work and some chap called W.G. Allen...
