IF EVEN the Swedes have this sort of trouble, what hope do the rest of us have?

Police in western Sweden were called to an apartment after neighbours complained of hearing loud banging and crying in the early hours of the morning.

When they arrived, the detectives discovered the young couple was just trying to assemble flatpack furniture they'd bought from Ikea.

It wasn't just the Allen key causing all the misery - the pair had a newborn baby who was doing most of the screaming, The Localreports, via Sweden's Expressen newspaper.

The child was apparently awoken by the banging being made as its parents assembled their furniture.
