God yes, I painted the kitchen weeks ago, I did most of the skirting then, BUT I forgot one bit and it is still waiting to be done. I may get round to it before we put it on the market LOL.

All the doors need doing in the house (7) but I am trying to persuade him indoors that it may be better to get new ones

I still dont understand how I manage to get more gloss on my hands than on the woodwork

sasbear

I have the answer!

Take my son (turtletom - the whicging pomm) - out here doing his apprenticeship in painting and decorating as he couldn't get on an apprenticeship in his perfect UK world gr gr grrrr

rant over sorry

I've been telling my wife that I am useless at that for so long now, that I can't even remember if it's true or not

Anyway, she is getting better at it

I wouldn't have gloss in any house of mine, except the one I am in where Nutty Nora put the bloody stuff all over the place. Will cover it up eventually but that is a nightmare in itself. Can't bear gloss - looks crap IN MY OPINION is a nightmare to put on without making a mess or having brush strokes and is just horrible. But hey, you go for it
