    Karmcat~~the varnish did not have a smell.
    Looked like milk in the tin!!
    So doors & inner surround of front door done.
    A wee electrical repair, a hook up & the wardrobe mended.(Was DS's & is quite old but quite good quality).
    So chuffed with it all I cant tell you :j :j :j

    So the Fence(s) Of Doom at the end of the month & that is it.
    I will be eating bread & water for the rest of the year.
    I kid you not.
