Only freedom will do

Morning Mr E

I can't offer any comments about plastering I'm afraid. Just wanted to echo some of the other posts about the work thing. I would say that if you can afford to do it, go for it. Time with family is so precious. I really wish our place did something like it or even the option to buy more holiday - as I so would do it!

Have a lovely weekend

Both times I've had plastering done, they've come back to do any tidying up. One guy was very reluctant, until I told him that the way he'd left it, I could have done it myself (sounds nasty, but it was true, it looked like he'd dabbed it on with his fingers!).

I wonder if its a local thing, that a decorator would fix little tiny nicks and whatnot? Does checkatrade illuminate anything?

Hope you caught up on your sleep, Ed, even though you've been on holibob, there's been a lot going on.

Couldn't start painting today, quite disappointed. Went to the Seaside instead, which sounds great, but the traffic was murder, quite stressful :eek:

Sunday drivers stayed at home, done some gardening, then the barbie was out on both sides of me, glad I got washing in on time. Fantastic weather we're having, eh?

Lovely here as well. Missed BBQ with friends, I tell myself that 12+ hrs of painting was more fun :eek:

Finishing at 10.

Oh my, at 8.30? Thats dedication, Ed, are there fumes with that sort of primer or is it okay?
