    ooh the excitement, getting quotes for getting the outside of the house painted, thankfully the guy who did my house when we bought it was honest enough to say this time of year is bad for getting any outdoor painting done.

    Wonder if the other guy quoting will mention the same thing?
    we are due to have ours painted at the weekend. It was supposed to be last weekend but called off due to rain.

    I wonder if we can get through until easter ?

      The guy I use said that with the nights getting colder there's a lot more moisture content in the air, therefore he doesn't do any outdoors until April, if you do it now the paint will take in the moisture and then crack or bleed at the first sign of warmth.

                      We saw them last year at Ricoh (Coventry) last time. But the wife is a robbie fan so this could be "special"
