Reform in meltdown you say? Oh dear, how sad, never mind.

What's the skill leve What's the skill level for that, to get a really nice joint?

Floating. It'll be easy. This was the first bit done 25 years ago- no glue or nails. All the other bits have been floated, but with the t&g glued. I tried to get a piece of the newer stuff up to expose the tongue so I could join to it. Broke off the tongue, so no go. It'll be a threshold.

Next steps: 1 few more days drying out 2 Skirtings off 3 Decorate- herself wants plain white. 4 Lift the wood floor in view above. 5 Check subfloor, level if needed.

Plastering done, and drying out nicely. No more gashes to be seen!

My boundary is a river. I currently have a picket fence, the posts of which are literally cable tied to the mesh, albeit with SS ties. This has lasted years but is getting scruffy. I'd like a more substantial ranch style fence for the safety of kids n animals; and for the look. Is there any way...

Gawd no! My great nephew and his mate from work stepped in (his Nan made him lol). Ceiling's done now, I'll post a pic tomorrow. The far wall and side gashes where the wall was will be done tomorrow.

Brown mud on the ceiling! First coat, I think. (I was busy outside.) Very little mess, fair play.

Ceiling all boarded ready for plastering.

Sorry Noseall, for the dim... what would that entail?

Went well? He played the orange moron like a fiddle. Had he hinted that he might nominate him for a Nobel Peace Prize, he'd have got a bj on live tv..

That's actually the thing... I hadn't noticed it till I put a straight edge on it the other day. Plain white matt ceiling- not the easiest flaw to see. I will probably get on with it and see how it goes.

In a renovation at the moment, and I have noticed a single joist is lower than the rest causing a bow in the surface. The ceiling is in good condition generally, but is getting replastered due to elec and ch work needing the ceiling to be opened. Should I rectify this- it hasn't been noticeable...

You are right, of course, but it's 25 years old, and is really showing its age. I thought long and hard about buying a planer thickneser, but it's too much work tbh. I've already sanded and coated a few years back, but it was never the same. I may well find a use for it. You can collect it if...

Wiring (inc new CU) all done for the appliances and new lights, pipework moved for the radiator that was on the demolished wall done at the at far end, plastering prep Friday, plastering proper, Saturday. I hope!

Floor's coming up and replaced- the 'good' floor is the far end and protected.

The originator of the Farage Riots, Nigel Farage MP, really doesn't like them being referred to as the Farage Riots. So Denso, please refrain from referring to Mr Farage's riots as the 'Farage Riots'. Farage Riot Man of Clacton (rarely) thanks you (superficially).

Made a start on taking out a wall between my kitchen and dining room. I stupidly mentioned the possibility to the boss and she's forcing it through! WE built the house 29 years ago, and I was 98% certain the wall was non loadbearing, but handed over £180 to a local SE for him to confirm it...

Maybe the miracle is an earlier than needs be ticket to paradise?
