Cheers mate!!
I do have a compressor and a paint gun but I have yet to use the gun as it came with a box of kit and I was keeping it for painting cars.
But I can always get another gun! I just wonder how it would work when trying not spray the ceiling or the door frames etc when doing the walls. Do you have to mask up like you would on a car?
(I have sprayed cars in the past but I borrowed a mate's kit.)

He uses a long plastic thing with a handle bit like an oversized float, hold it up to the facings & skirtings
then spray away, he says he wished he'd got one ages ago.

Right, I get what you mean!
When you get to my age you look at stuff and say, will I ever need to do that again and more oftent han not the answer is "No".
For instance I will never do another kitchen and utility room!
Nor a bathroom unless one needs repair!
Only way in which I can imagine it being a possibility would be if we had to move. And then i might even pay for someone to do it.

We love rules in this country don't we.. seemingly more and more written up by people who have no real world clue what they're actually ruling.

If some random someone finds something not to their liking then ban it or at least legislate against it

True. We should be more French in this regard.

Morning All

Late today (lie-in).

Wet everywhere but not raining and 2°.
Have a good day.

A very damp, yukky mist hanging over here - not that the dogs mind and they spare no thought for me as long as their routine is adhered to.

Oh no we don't. Frogland has more restrictive regulation than one can possibly imagine, this dating back to the Napoleonic laws. The Frogs appear to demonstrate against/ignore the rules but in reality they always cow-tail to Paris. Have you ever tried buying a new car in France? And don't mention their employment laws and taxation system...they're a nightmare.

The UK's low regulatory levels are ideal for open/liberal markets...and long may they last.

I am completely out of 6, 7, 8mm masonry drill bitz. After many years and drilling zillions of holes, all bitz in those sizes are well and truly cattle trucked. Time to bin the old ones and off to wix for some new ones.

I'll bet the new ones don't last as long

I think you are right. Last time I bought bits in the smaller sizes they were made in Britain. Even the big brand names have them made out of chinesium these days

This is why there are so many Froggies in the UK. So many that French politicos come over here to canvass for votes.
Starting up a new business over here is an absolute pice of p!ss compared to Frogland, so guess where they go?
Re rules and regulations, they do have to have something for all their civil servants to do.
