What have you been doing or plan on doing today?


Recommended Posts

Been painting the outside of the house for the last 2 days, yesterday went fine but today has been a nightmare. I was doing the rendered white bit and the ladder slipped, dropped the paint which bounced down the low part of the roof and crashed to the floor  :'( :'( :'( :'( I have then had to power hose the roof and the drive to get the white paint off.

Then I decided to paint (wood stain) the garage door, I was half way through that and I knocked the stain over the newly power hosed drive :-[:-[ :-[:-[ I then used about 2 pints of white spirit and an old sheet to clean it up and had to power hose the drive again :-\ :-\ :-\

That's it........I am never going to be a decorator.....I used to call my son Captain Chaos because of the things he did, now I know where he gets it from :-\ :-\ :-\ :-\ :-\
