I'm useless at decorating so I tend to just knock the wall down rather than paper/paint it!

I'm not a completer finisher by nature - so every time I actually finish something I feel fantastic. I learnt it on a team working session, and went promptly out at the time and hired a completer finisher to mop up all the things I got bored with but had to do.

Nowadays; I have got alot better at it! I actually plan in the final bits of things!!!

I did that the other week, with an artist's brush. I was dreading the cutting in, but it was actually quite therapeutic, and my hands weren't as shaky as I thought they were

Ditto - although I would so like to change that

That's one of my jobs for today...the second coat of black paint to hide the newly rewired bits. (I quite enjoy it! saddo)

I've discovered that I must be more interesting to talk to than I thought. I've done that Belbin questionnaire thing and I was a reflector and a mixture of implementer and completer finisher. The reflector part means I sit back and ponder and don't say much - which was really true. It's a confidence thing for me but in the last few months i think I've taken huge steps forward.

i have always found it is better to use the biggest brush for the space, and then angle it to get a really straight edge or line. and a short handle is better than a long handle, so if you are lining, it helps cut the handle off short

Like your style Mr Snadge. However said painted wall is an external one, a little too chilly for me this time of year to have outside living inside

Owwww I'd really a go on this test thingy. I wonder if that'll tell me I'm a perfectionist too, so far it's only family
