Why do you need French agreement to build a Swedish flatpack table in your own lounge?
Having visited the Lego website, said table would have been significantly cheaper

I know some people take the proverbial out of them, but I personally have a suite of matching desk, chest of drawers, wardrobe and divan bed, all from IKEA. They are excellent quality, very robust and fairly easy to assemble on site (given a bit of time).
This is not a commercial - just my impartial observations on their offering. CfN.

Don't forget you need French agreement before building that. 

Ah, oui. L'Entente Cordiale*.
*Other soft drinks are available.

Barrier and drain repairs are continuing on the M5 southbound between J28 (Cullompton) and J29 (A30, Exeter) as of midday 28/01/2026. Only one lane open.
As I found out this morning driving to IKEA in Exeter. Took nearly 45 minutes to get through the bottleneck. That was after abandoning my journey to IKEA Bristol yesterday.
I do now have the table I needed for my latest project...
