Wallpaper, paint or Christmas Steamers?

Just think about the number of brownie points you'll amass John!

But don;t forget you get them in ones and two and then lose them by the bucketload!! ;D ;D

Cheers Dave

Hello John,sorry to dissapoint you, but I have made a couple of decorated pieces but don't want to show them until I have finished the series.As soon as I have I will post the pics.
Dave,dr4gOnfly, paint and paper and yes I must have amassed beaucoup brownie points by now as I have fitted a replacement bay window in  the front room and decorated the whole room. :) So this last fornight (yes it took me two weeks)I have been a window fitter,glazier,plumber,electrician,painter and decorator and carpet fitter and all for less than the minimum wage!
Why do we have to do it just before Christmas? I could have been in the shed.
However on the plus side I have had a job come in that has to be done between Christmas and New Year ;)
Regards
John
