THE LOVING BATTLE He said: "Loving her was like... putting together an Ikea flatpack with a  few screws missing!" She said: "Ha...loving him was like... putting together an Ikea flatpack in the dark...without knowing what it was!" We called them" "The Ikea Couple" knowing it could never last. "It will end in tears!" we said. Man & wife now these...what last 40 years? "How come...you've come this far!" we enquired incredulously "We love to row!" they say simultaneously "We call it THE LOVING BATTLE!" He calls her: "Hammer!" She calls him: "Tongs!" "When it looks all wrong we know it's alright! We both enjoy a good fight!" "And.... ...the making up? That's the best bit!"
