Yea, I understand what you're saying. I'll pay more attention to this next time I'm plastering too then. Thanks for the pointers.

Thanks for the help. I've done 2 full rooms so far & it only happens occasionally. The most infuriating thing is I don't know what's causing it, so don't know what I need to change. I thought I was keeping the trowel clean & wet, but possibly not enough. I'll keep a closer eye next time & see...
