After three lovely, peaceful days on the West Coast of Ireland quietly wandering around Connemara beaches and holed up in a spa hotel, it's back to work with a vengeance. Whilst I was away I was hoping that my whiplash court case may be settled, but it seems this legal trauma just keeps on rolling.... Continue Reading →
Radsnaps rock to cover up copper piping
So what do you do when you have some unsightly copper piping like this on the left to cover up, apart from paint it? Use these babies of course! Scissors at the ready just cut them to the right length, unfurl them gently and snap them round the offending bit of copper. This clearly will... Continue Reading →
Should one strip on a Sunday?!
Paint strip, you pervs!! It's a day of rest of course, in most people's lives, but I was wide awake at 7am and bored by 9.

Minty green and quite hideous kitchen given the Moregeous boudoir treatment

However, this renovation last year was in a ground floor rented apartment (not the local jail as the bars would seem to suggest) where the rear room was being used a kitchen...... I love this makeover. Yeh yeh, I... Continue Reading →
I LOVE a bargain!! Nick Munro at John Lewis, it’s going in the BrookBox
I loved these Nick Munro ( http://www.nickmunro.com/ ) for John Lewis walnut and chrome bathroom fittings when they were launched a while back, and fell off my feet when I saw them in store reduced and winking at me as I walked past bathrooms. Well, they didn't so much wink as shout Get Your Switch Card Out... Continue Reading →
