    Cabinet repair help

    Good morning. I'm afraid that's something I would make a right mess of. I have an idea of filling the small and very shallow cracks with a closely matching filler and then varnishing the whole thing.

    Cabinet repair help

    Only thing is, Mrs had the bright idea of buying 3 baskets, which cannot be returned now for the shelves of the cabinet. To be fair to her, it was a good idea at the time and makes the cabinet suit the living room nicely. Of course , she will blame me, saying I promised to restore it, and that's...

    Coronavirus

    Here here! Returned from a walk with the Mrs and we did enjoy how quiet it was. A guy was washing his car and on seeing us he got inside it, sat down and then got out once we passed. Not sure if this was because of the current situation or because he didn't like the look of us haha.

    Friendship vs Greed

    Hi. Newbie here. It doesn't add much to the conversation but just to say I am a vegetarian for the past 34 years and many of my work colleagues still don't know.
