The ricecake was fiddly and difficult to cover the existing colour so that was definitely you Elliot. The ceiling was easy to cover with white but was already a dirty white and easy to see where to cover .. so that was definitely Aaron
Fiddly? I've been called worse.
How strong were the paint fumes Alan? 
That was the best bit! Fiddly! Why fiddly?! I'm actually laughing so much just from this-I must've got some of the paint fumes somehow.

Well they were all emulsions today - they don't give off fumes (water-based you see)
yesterday I was high on the gloss when I was doing the kitchen doors .. perhaps it's a delayed reaction

Aw. I like to just sit on my own, in the quiet and the dark. Calming.
I also loved about the dado rail!

I have 4 nephews, 5 nieces, an assortment of 25 great nephews or nieces and now one great, great nephew and I have no f**king idea what calm is meant to be!
Are your family humans or rabbits?

You can't just take fiddly on it's own you have to look at the difficult to cover bit as well. You are feisty and not easy to pin down.

I do wonder, Aaron

That's quite good actually! More paint Alan!

I'm just hoping Aaron doesn't ask me about the dirty white analogy 
Looks like penalties in the Turkey-Croatia game - excitement at last!
Just as I say that Croatia score
And now Turkey have scored so I get my penalties. 
I have a cold/bird flu.
I'm not happy.
I'm sipping lemsip max strength.
Also - my housemate didn't come home last night... ooooh gossip.
Also - I was on the tube last night and group of girl yout's were talking and one of the girls said "Oh mee god, sum gurl sed she fort my arse was offensive... but she is a nice gurl, innit". I do worry - I really do!

That is brilliant.
Well, it was the summer solstice this morning, which means that the nights start getting longer from here on in. YAY!

Maybe it was a full moon.
I can't believe this. I'm online and Alan C isn't. Now there's a first!
Cheeky git
I'm bored, so very, very bored.
