We have very small Somerfield, Morrisons in next town and Tesco even further than that.

Grudge having to do a 50 mile round trip for paper or bin bags, lol.

Sounds expensive, do you have no local shops that sell cheapish bin liners, :eek: you will spend more on fuel than you save, or can you paint cheap wallpaper/lining paper with cheap black emulsion. If you can get cheap paper and emulsion, do you really need to do this? Can you not just pour a glass of wine and relax LOL! And think about getting the supplies for next year next time you go somewhere with shops !

Lol nearlyrich....the Highlands don't do cheap. Or at least the part of them where I live.

I might do cheapskate though. The wine looks like a good idea to me.

I have a black felt pen? :rolleyes:

Sheel produced a very large bottle of wine to help Queenie through her plumbing woes, she must have some left!

Highlands are very beautiful but I suppose the downside is the distances from things I take for granted. ( I have 2 x 24 hour supermarkets within 3 miles) I'm passng a party shop tomorrow shall I get some black crepe paper and send it to you ?

Lol..I think you'd need the 10 tonne truck that came out in the Argos days....I have a big hall.

I would definately stick with the wine then, going to bed now so goodnight!

I know this is slightly( well o.k quite a lot, but get a couple of friends to help, it'l be fun!) more effort than black bin liners, but my freind got loads of old big boxes, flattened them to card board, and painted simple but effective stone walls on them, and pinned them up.It looked great, finnished off with some fake cobwebs, and a giant wool web over the ceiling.Fantasticly effective.
