Morning all

Greenbe - Welcome back
Thrifty- welcome back
I managed to catch the binmen this morning and asked them very nicely if they would take the extra bags of carpet for me and they did
I love my binmen
There were 5 bags sitting along one side of my bed against the wall which I couldn't get past without climbing, now I can and my room doesn't seem as daunting to decorate now
:rotfl:
I've had to go under the stairs right to the back to dig out more paint rollers (I buy the packs of the roller refills and just use the same handle
) then discovered they were too big for my roller handle :mad: So a little bit of newspaper and electrical tape for padding and I have a roller ready to use for the decorating
