Great to see super-GoodGymmer Nick again for our second mission together and his fifth mission of the day...!

I've had an easy time of it lately with any furniture moving missions - fridges aren't too heavy when they're empty and very compliant at going through doorways. However, it was a sofa we were tasked with moving out of Mr J's flat, to assist with his return from hospital in the next few days. It began ominously as we were given a heads up that the sofa might not fit into the lift, and once at Mr J's flat I made the mistake of joking that the before photo might look the same as the after photo. We gave it a good go, establishing all of the ways in which the sofa wouldn't go through the living room door and I'm pleased to share our findings here:

It's too tall to go through by standing on one end and shuffling round the corner

It's too wide to go through horizontally

It's a tad heavy as it's a sofabed and has all the internal mechanism for that

It looks like undoing some bolts would allow the arms to come off and the bed frame to come out so it could be taken out in separate pieces

Neither of us carries an adjustable spanner at all times

It's always frustrating to come away from a mission not having achieved what you'd hoped for the beneficiary, but perhaps the above might be useful for any GoodGymmers getting a second bite of the cherry.

Enjoy your hol Nick, till the next one!
