    I posted before you, so you can see what I did!
    Well done for doing so much.
    It's called an angle grinder and yes they are noisy! But hopefully you will have nice walls after!
    I've just decluttered a mars bar and am having my lightbox along with phil and fern.
    Done some online banking, and going to delete some emails, and then do some fun stuff!

    Wobbly Wednesday - Living room, hall, stairs and porch!

    COMPLETE :j :j :j I did it on Monday.

    Today I have cleaned all the bedrooms and had a S&S downstairs so I'm finished for this week. :D:D

    Now everywhere is decluttered and had a really thorough clean it takes no time at all to keep it clean.

    This afternoon I'm going to sort out a shopping list ready for Mr T tomorrow and I might make a cake later.

    Hugs to everyone
