Wallington filming - the candleman

[sparkwright]

Anyone seen this great series of videos on YouTube?

It is about a house-bashing painter and his tricks of the trade.

It's also about how rubbish the building trade is and all the bodges that take place.

Worth a look, and entertaining for all the wrong reasons.

Quite addictive.

I had a quick look and apart from having to listen carefully to t'accent, I guess there ain't much money in New Builds. ( will view more later ) Back in the good old days, my dad traveled from Uckfield to Crawley new town when it was being built ( on a bike+sidecar ) decorating. After a couple of years had saved enough for a brand new van. No mortgage to worry about, Council rent was collected in cash on Tuesdays. Is it nostalgia or was it better then ?
