    thank you! I do have a pole and another roller(or paintbrush) that I tape to a broom handle. I find it really difficult to control tho, I think I must be a bit weak! Today I painted walls, and it looks really good ( deeply suprised since yesterday looked crap) Do I really need to paint...

    Anytips for painting cellings?

    I tried today and it was a disaster. Apart from a dreadful neck ache every time I look up I see bits I have missed. I am using a roller, but going round the edges with a brush. In my DIY book it says if you use a roller and it sprays paint all over you then you are doing it wrong, well I...

    Footie season is here

    Well... I find football exciting, watching a decent match getting completely sucked into the game and really giving a damn about whether the ball goes in to the net. some footballers are just fantastic to watch. the way they get past other players predict the play and work together of course you...

    Putting flooring in my loft for heavy storage?

    Wow that is scary reading, I just assumed the loft was like a normal floor except it didn't have floor boards. I can't strengthen the joists myself in anyway? Does this mean I'd have to get professionals in ? (shivers) Oh dear. If I took pictures would that help? I mean would someone on...
