Never, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night.

    There's probably a batten where the rose was fitted. Stick a bradawl into the plaster and see if it encounters wood. If so, a normal wood screw will do. If not, then any expanding plasterboard fixing will do the job.
    I can afford anything that I want.
    Just so long as I don't want much.
