    Removing a socket

    Thanks for your replies. I don't intend fitting cabinets in that space. For some reason the point is just there, in the middle of a wall. Perhaps previous occupants had kitchen units there.

    Most irritating domestic tortures

    Having just completed a much needed and long awaited clean-up around the house (great way to spend a day off by the way). I seemed to be the victim of many minor, but really annoying things that can happen whilst performing the most common tasks. As if the very act of restoring order...
