ceiling down in the kitchen today and there was 70 years of crap and dust up there, it took me ages to clean up, funny thing is the wife was giving me ear ache to get it done then when she came in from work I got ear ache for making a mess . Looks like I will have black bogies for a few days as well

You should have worn your spidey face cover and all would have been well with the world

you should have thrown a bucket of water on the floor and told her a pipe had burst.....

.....so are we going to see you on DIY SOS in 3 years time then Pete....

I cant wait to get the place finished, just the kitchen and dining room and thats the whole house refubished all done by me and still standing . My best achievements are the parquet flooring which was reclaimed, cleaned, and laid by my own fair hands and the bathroom .

Well done. It'll probably be nicely cleaned up by the time you get back from Slough!

That reminds me. En-suite floor is still largely marine ply following my fitting of a new shower 18 months ago.

<whisper> SWMBO seems to have forgotten </whisper>

A word of advice Pete from personal experience doing up your house is like painting the Forth bridge as soon as think you've finished it's time to start again

[Elite Pete]

It wont be finished for a long time yet, once the internals are done ive got loads of fencing to do and 8 tonnes of cobbles to lay

Tell me about it.....the bathroom was the last room in our house to be decorated/re-furbished since we moved in 5 years ago.......and that includes an extension and 72m² of clay (not block) paving on the drive as well!

Now SWMBO is talking about re-doing the lounge (for the third time)....at least I might get a nice new LCD tele though....

Then next year its a 6m x 4m rear sun room, once I have finished my brick laying course.

.... and the furry thing attached to the mask would make a good substitute feather duster.
