I remember saying to a mate that he could paint his own place, why was he getting someone in.Originally posted by FiveTimes View PostI was going to do my own drive, but then I priced it up and the time off, it just wasn't worth it.
He just said how much he was paying the guy to do it, and thoguht about how long it would take him to do it himself.
Since then, I've taken the same attitude to a lot of things!Comment

I'll slap some paint on, re-wire and even unblock the drains but I will never do plastering.
