I finished up across the room on my back almost landing on the TV!🤯.... it was certainly a lesson on the power and perils of the old Lecky! 😂 | |||

Thank the gods for Deliveroo "Bacon, black pudding and tomatoes all under the grill. Went into the front room with a brew, 5 minutes picking the film I was going to start watching and thought "I'll just see how the bacon is". Went into the kitchen and couldn't smell anything. Opened the oven door and saw a tray full of raw food. I had switched the grill on and failed to actually set the temperature. I'm just glad it wasn't four hours to cook my breakfast! | |||

However, probably best not to mess with mains electric if you are not sure what you are doing... it has a habit of biting you else! | |||

"My example was on Saturday afternoon, it was a lovely sunny day and I decided to rake the lawn to get rid of the moss and was doing a reasonable job until I scrapped off a patch of skin between my thumb and finger, even though I was wearing gloves. I should have worn thicker gloves! You need to wank more to condition your hands to more “work”. Someone said to me yesterday, that my hands were too soft and I wasn't used to that kind of hard graft, they were right!" | |||

"... My best tip....never try to slice anything on a mandolin (after 2 serious gin and tonics) while you are also trying to entertain guests who have arrived EARLY..." I see you're older and wiser like me. Mine is 'never lick a steak knife'. | |||

"For me, getting a good straight and professional-looking line of sealant around a bath is a total nightmare. But when I watch the pros, they make it look so easy and do it in no time. What's their secret?" Doesn't matter what I do it looks like I was shaking like a shitting dog. Same goes for painting with a small brush. I'm fine with a wide one and can do wall to ceiling or vice versa in black and white and it looks perfect. Put a half inch brush in my hand and I go all Impressionist. | |||
