@Martina He's a thug! Assaulting a police officer is bad enough but behind the uniform is a person, a woman doing her job! All this argument about "intent" is legal jargon. If you hit a person with a sledge hammer what do you expect to happen? Thank you Martina for voicing common sense.
@andyhowellsport@Scotlandteam Not sure about Adams and Tomkins but (if he can cut out the penalties) Plumtree may be worth a try in the 2nd row. Personally, I thought Cracknell played okay at 8 but agree a back row with Reffell is far more balanced. Yup, Tandy won't pick it.
@MrNickKnowles Totally agree! Without wishing to be disrespectful to the man, if that is the level of intelligence guiding Wales, then no wonder we are in the mess we are in!
I dreaded painting the garage workshop as I hate painting pebbledash but this time I used a paint sprayer. What a difference! The garage was done in no time and is transformed. #diy #รworkshop
Continuing with the garden renovation, I put down a brick entrance by the gate. I started by levelling the ground and pouring a concrete base. I need to enclose the bricks with a low sleeper wall and then onto the rest of the path! #gardenrestoration#brickpath
This old bench was in the garden when we bought the house. It had been left out and untreated for years, so had areas of rot but was otherwise a good quality bench. I replaced the rotten wood. Painted using Curprinol "Sage" green. #gardenrestoration#gardenbench
After the renovation, the house lacked some character, so we decided to try a gallery wall in the hallway. I'm not sure how successful it turned out, but at least it's more interesting than before. #gallerywall#diy
Put the workshop to good use and made a gate for the arbour entrance. Made using treated 4x2, lap joints, pocket screws and finished in "Daisy White" to match the arbour. Hopefully the hedge will now grow around the arbour to blend it in #woodworking#gardengate
Last bit of work for my workshop was to build a workbench that would house my tablesaw. It's not really finished as but good enough to all me to get on with other projects. #workbench#workshop#woodworking
I wanted to make a feature wall in the workshop, so I went for a pallet wood wall. I painted the OSB black behind the wall to help hide any gaps. I varied wood stains and then gave three coats of satin varnish. #workshop#palletwood
Insulating and panelling the workshop using foil Insulation for the walls, PIR for the ceiling and 18mm OSB. Hard work, but will be worthwhile. #workshop
Showing the progress of the kitchen and utility room renovation. A small extension was built where there was a lean-to and the wall removed. The original kitchen is now where the utility room is (yes, it was THAT small). Still a little work to do but almost there! #renovation
To bring light to the workshop, I decided to add a window. To keep costs down, I bought a window from Facebook Marketplace for ยฃ20 but it clearly didn't fit, so out came the disc cutter! I just didn't realise the neighbours would be so nosey!!๐ #workshop
Since moving to my new home, I've been missing a workshop. The garage was small with three rooms squeezed inside. It also had a low asbestos roof. This post will be the first in a series showing the garage being turned into my workshop. We'll start with the structural changes!
Using a leftover floor joist from the attic conversion, I made a radiator shelf. The wood was aged using a hammer, cutting splits in the wood using a multi-tool and burnt before going over it with a wire brush. Finally stained and varnished. #upcycle#diy
Laying an Indian sandstone patio around the house. This was a hard job as I had to lay upon an existing concrete slab, so drains had to be cut in , and levels kept ensuring I remained below the DPC. Well worth it in the end!
