Palfy Posted February 13 Report Share Posted February 13 8 hours ago, MikeO said: Happy memory.... First house my wife and I lived in the kitchen consisted of a sink hanging off the wall and nothing else. I'd never done any real DIY and had no power tools plus we were skint; built a kitchen from scratch using a hand drill. Work surface, cupboards all done using 2x1 timber frames and home made tongue and groove panels, so bloody satisfying. Wife decorated the whole house; I sound like Monty Python saying how great things when we were poor but good times. That's the spirit and adventure of youth shining through Mike, where life's for living and not a lot seems to unattainable, and it's a joy to take a task on you have no experience of. Now as we get older we can't be arsed even if we could, and are much happier to pay someone else and then most of the time moan that we could have done better. Any how kitchen finished at 1:50am Best of luck with your kitchen remodels lads. Romey 1878 and MikeO 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

End result will be good but the upheaval I'm really not looking forward to; company reckon they can complete in two days, we'll see. How did the kitchen go mate all done and happy I hope.

We've had a delay, it's all bought and paid for but the fitter is a friend of a friend doing it off the books (proper kitchen fitter mind) and he's got busy. Actually quite happy to wait for warmer weather, also all that upheaval with only one semi-functioning arm would be frustrating; I can wait.

I can understand that you won't find many if any decent tradesmen who aren't busy. Shoulder still giving you a lot of trouble then Mike, must be getting you down it's been a few weeks now it's been out of action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, nearly four weeks now and very little change, they said the pain would ease after three but no sign as yet. Have physio on Tuesday so hoping for some progress then.
