yes i will do too! was just thinkgin about what i needed! wish me lots of luck!!!! is there a way of drying the filler quicker with a hair dryer or anythin?!(this could be a really dumb question...)

hi,
dont no if you are about but thank you soooo much, i have successfully filled the hole up and am waiting for the paint to try so i can sponge it! the colour match is perfect and from a distance it doesnt even need doing!!! I just hope the paint dries very soon!
the other hook is still stuck on at the moment, i tried to take it off but i ould see a tiny crack in the plaster so stopped! Might try and do it another night!!!!

Thank you again for all your help!

I love a happy ending

Now that you're experienced you can do the other hook easy, gouge the plaster round it or push a thin blade under to avoid pulling off a big lump.

ill try it at the wkend! cant face it now! i just hope that it doenst get noticed - suppose it depends how thoroughly they check it - from previous experiene they dont really bother!

with reference to your offer, john does need lots of education, but i fear you cant teach an old dog new tricks
