I've been having great difficulty hanging the wallpaper in my living room recently. The information provided with the paper says Repeat 16cm with the offset symbol. Nothing else So I picked a header. Cut my first piece labeled it (A) then matched the second piece up against it cut and labeled...

Ready mix will be fine. As long as it isn't the fine surface stuff. That doesn't go on too well if the hole is deep. No PVA required. Just score the area to give it some key and dampen it to stop the filler drying too quickly.

Yes it is 8 ft wide, 10ft long. Before any of this hassle I requested to paint the shed myself on their premises but was told I couldn't due to H&S. I'm doubtful they will allow me to visit their yard now. I will however be watching every step of its construction if and when they come back with...
