  • Aww that’s lovely of your Grandad to help you out. I’ve always enjoyed doing DIY with my Dad, it’s great to learn something useful and save money on tradesmen. Plus you can get it done exactly how you want it - I’ve found that tradesmen are not really perfectionists like I am! Certainly none of them would put up with me like my Dad does ��
  • Yeah he is awesome!

    Also gives me piece of mind that I won't be paying the odds or extra either :-)
