Default Wickes Easy Lay Laminate - seem to have cracked it!

After struggling with 2/3 of daughters bedroom floor with lots of
swearing and the odd joint which still gapes a bit, I think I finally
cracked it for the last third!

1) Dust out the slot in the already laid planks with a soft brush

2) Lightly sand the half cylindrical mating surface on the next plank

3) Put plank in at 20 degrees up from flat and line up

4) Waggle plank up and down whilst slotted in to bed in the mating
surfaces until the plank will lie flat on the floor whilst fully clipped
in (about 10 waggles)

5) Admire!
