    Yeah I've done wallpapering a couple of times before n found it easy enough. Horizontal sounds awkward and frustrating as **** though so I'd likely pay some other **** to do it and just have a beer instead.

    Used to love a bit of DIY.
    Moved to where we are now 18 years ago.
    Bought it from a work colleague who bought it "renovated" for selling on at a profit. They did a **** job.
    So i gutted the place. Skimmed throughout(****in hate wallpaper) , new skirting, back moulds, stairs, doors back and front. New loft hatch, insulated, boarded the loft and added lighting and sockets.
    Everything is painted white/light colours. Hate cutting in dark colours.
    Put down two patios out the back and put some proper fencing up. Stuck some founds in for a new 8x12 shed.
    Then decided we needed a bigger kitchen and a garage conversion.
    Had to lift the garage roof to get the ceiling height in the garage. Building and tiling a hip roof is fun.
    Doubled the size of the kitchen. Putting the steel in was fun. Had to have the ceiling flush, can't stand a lintel sticking down from the ceiling.
    Did everything on the extension apart from brickwork, skimming, fitting the new boiler and the electrics.
    Fitted a new kitchen myself with help from the father in law. Proper old skool glue and screw guy. Built to last.
    ****, we live on a slope and have two cars. Decided to put a level double drive in and steps. Had to build it up four feet.

    Fitted a new bathroom twice.

    Last thing I did was run some electric to the shed, set up my gym stuff and hung a telly.

    That's it. All done. Will get a lick of paint when the kids eventually **** off.

    ****in loathe diy now.

    Got better things to do <cheers>
