DIY. I fucking hate it. The only reason i do it is because i put if off long enough to the point where my wife says that she will do it. There is no way i'm being put to shame by my wife so i end up just doing what needs to be done.  (apart from painting, she can paint all she likes)
I laid tiles in one of the bathrooms last week and whilst i think i did a decent job for a first go, i never want to do it again, but the first thing my wife says is "you can do our bathroom next"

Then after that you can do each of the kids' bathrooms, then both of the nannies*.

*Ahem, nannies'.

I’m doing a bathroom refurb for my neighbour. The tiling has morphed from just the shower cubicle area and along the units to all over the room, while were at it we’ll have floor tile too.... my knees are going to take a hammering this week. Then there was a radiator move because the shower tray was bigger than originally discussed and impeded the new location. Not to mention the reworking of the pipes due to where the original owner plumbed the extension himself to save money. It goes on, so will her bill. For no other reason than she has gone mad from the original budget conscious layout to a I want and I want and I want.

Fucking slugs in the sitting room every morning. Slimy bastards. Even worse, it just reminds me of Fatty Evans every bleedin’ day.

My nan keeps finding maggots on the kitchen floor and she has no idea how they are getting there.

I do live in an old cottage and they creep in through the skirting board from outside. I don’t understand why they want to get in, though. There’s nowt to eat. I’ve instructed the greyhound to be on high slug alert every night but he’s too busy, obviously.

Had a similar problem once, they'll be getting in via the air bricks and under the floorboards. Sealant on the skirting helped.

Indeed, even as a pudding with cream and fruit is fine, not breakfast though.
