Morning womps x

Wish me luck today, Em's bought a mural for the bedroom wall, not a small one, it covers the entire wall from floor to ceiling, it's of a view, stepping out onto a tropical beach...She said it would be nice to wake up too.
Of course, it's in 8 sections, got to prime the wall, mark the wall to have level lines centre, apply wallpaper paste, allow soaking time, hang and overlap 3mm to allow for shrinkage.
I have to do it today with Emily, I fear the worst, I'm not looking forward to it at all !

I will post pics of the amazing results or the laughable attempt.

Once I start, there is no going back as I have to sand the wall to allow the paste to stick, that wall at the moment has a gloss finish paint on it.

Emily said her usual, oh, we'll be fine ! Yeah, OK......

Good Luck! May the force be with you!

And Pics! Don't forget to take pics!

those are soooooooo kewl! And the beach......couldn't ask for a better mural! But wow, good luck! No way would I ever be able to do that. I can't even hang a picture straight. I see things lopsided. Dunno if its the astigmatism or what, but I look at a round supper plate, and it looks oval to me.

:shock:
Well everyone, it's been fun, but I most definitely won't be spending time in this thread anymore. There are some things I just don't want to see. Now if it were the right people in that hot tub...:D
Heyyyyyyy what you got against old wrinkled men and fat wimmin??? :p :facepalm: yeah I don't do public nudity. I git in the shower and scare the soap!! lmao

I've been sick and now going back to work so I'll be busy. So hello and so long. Have a wonderful day!
awwwwww dangit hun........sorry you've been sick. Been wondering bout you. Thought maybe you were just worn out from the weekend of chores and workin. Hope you are much better very soon. Daniel's got it too, and seems like Katy is coming down with it now.

Morning Atchy!

Oops, said I wasn't posting here until the hot tub situation was resolved.
hehehe you know you can't resist us!!

    Well it's mostly the old wrinkled men part.
    But I do think of you as more like family, so that's kinda weird too.

    No it wouldn't be, I won't be drinking....maybe when it's do to celebrate or drown my sorrows.

    Wall sanded, washed, plume line done, perfectly straight + marked out which is the most important part, Emily had to go and get the kids, it's great because the school just think it's Emma..

    The mural was bigger than we thought, its 3.8 meters long, Em orders these things and goes to work and leaves me to do it, just taking it slow, gonna take hours and hours ;)

    On the subject of Emily getting the kids, the teachers tell her stuff or the mums on the playground do, Emma comes back and takes them and has no idea what they are talking about cause Emily has failed to mention it, just another crazy day in our house.

    Little out of focus, sorry I'm tired, that wasn't easy but WOW, it turned out soooooo good, I'm well pleased with it.

    Hope y'all like it ! Still got to trim the top and bottom and around the plug socket but the hard work is done now..

    Im so glad I took the light switch off, made for a super tidy job I must say.

    Look at the size of it LOL
