You and your trees.Wallpapering: decided to go with a wall muriel and got around the chimney breast in one go without screwing up the pattern, swearing, pleading or the usual tantrums that accompany such a task...

for my next trick i shall do a somersault and paste the wall.
Two car loads so far, moved a bench and a lot of gear round my mums, she got me clearing out 2 sheds and the garden and cleared it of rubbish so I ended up taking another car load to the tip. Still got a car load left in the garage. Going to load it up tonight and take it to the tip tomorrow. I’ve been at it for 7 hours solid now - I’m going to ache like a bastard later!
I decorated our spare back bedroom with some tree themed wallpaper once. We had no net curtains or blinds at the time and the windows were the full width of the room. Birds were always flying into the windows and a couple of them broke their necks!
I was wrong. I ache like two bastards!
Used to have that problem 'til the day came when a young thrush flew headlong into the kitchen window; despite me waving my arms and yelling - must've thought i was directing it in...the 'thud' when it hit the glass was an awful sound. Hit it at full speed, so fast it doesn't even know it's dead yet. Got stickers for the glass after that: butterflies. They work, too. The Fat Pigeon managed to swerve in time to avoid collision.
I’ve had a few knock themselves out but after looking after them until they came round, they made a full recovery after a couple of minutes and flown off.
