    I can heartily recommend quick drying gloss! I love it, it's the future, ( a little like garlic bread. ) :D:D

    I painted our untreated pine door and skirting. It needed 3 coats, but, it's incredibly quick to apply, it was dry in 2 hrs, and ready for the next coat in 4 hours. :T:T Ace. Good luck with it. ;)

    What make of quick dry gloss did you use?

    lbnblbnb - welcome back, long time no see - never could get used to your user name, I remember you told me once what it stands for to help me remember but my sieve head has forgotten

    Dinner almost ready
    WM just finished

    Not sure which of my many tasks to do later but I do want the kids to sort out the approx 50 golf clubs, at least 6 cricket bats and countless footballs which are in my garage.

  • Happy Birthday Frodders - hope you are having an extra unbirthday once terms out!


    My flying is now concentrated - just found out DS's op will be this Friday :eek:
    So much for a couple of weeks notice! But at least we'll all be Ok for our planned holiday later in August - best send confirmation along.

    Making a list of who I need to tell, cover to arrange at work, rearrange booked childcare , and check my store of "things to do" so we all get on peaceably next week. Ooh, maybe an online shop to come next week too.

    OK - coffee first, then master list I think. Extra load flung in washer as best catch up and get ahead on that too.

    Moam
    Although no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.... life is a WIP.
