So my Dad came down to stay for a few days and after he left i was tidying up the spare room, One of the cupboards in that room holds the towels, bedding etc and id had gotten a little sloppy with putting things away so i thought ill empty it out and tidy it up, also go through all the crap that had been dumped on the top shelf. then i saw the state of the paintwork, all magnolia ( I HATE IT) and patchy, and the giant hole left by the removal of a bit of skirting board that the boiler people removed like 12 years ago. so i emptied it and well its grown arms and legs.
