On another thread there was some healthy banter about Ikea. But someone had the audacity to suggest that the Ikea name was meaningless. this has deeply offended those of us with Scandanavian affections.
For the record Ikea stands for Ingvar Kamprad Elmtaryd Agunnard. The first two words are the initials of the company's founder, the third word is for the farm he lived on and the final word is the name of the village where he grew up in.
God bless him!

I thought Ikea was the Swedish for "missing two screws and the instructions...but quite moderetly priced"
Or at least it should!
