Bellenden Belle Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 Hello guys,Okay so some people on here are aware that theres been a few changes happening in my life....Now I am very pleased to say that over the past six days I have proved myself hugely resourceful... both practically and emotionally.BUT and its a big but - I have an achilles heel. I can't or to be honest won't do DIY.I have moved into a small room in a house with a friend....and have bought a single piece of art to mark the occasion. Could someone hang it - my friend can't help as she asks my (soon to be ex) to hang all her paintings. For a bottle of wine would someone bring round a hammer (or drill or whatever one requires) and put up my rather significant new piece?Pms please... and any discussion advice you have to offer is welcome too on this thread.

ChavWivaLawDegree Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 I always just bang a masonary nail into the wall and hang my pics on that! Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/2938-can-you-hang-a-picture/#findComment-90885 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bellenden Belle Posted March 30, 2008 Author Share Posted March 30, 2008 Oh Chav - I clearly need to buy a book...what's a masonary nail?But fear not - the piece is now up, I am thrilled, and very touched by the offers of help. Many thanks Brendan - I owe you a drink! Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/2938-can-you-hang-a-picture/#findComment-90890 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moos Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Nice one, BB - putting your mark on new abode and new start. Here's to you. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/2938-can-you-hang-a-picture/#findComment-90938 Share on other sites More sharing options...
giggirl Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Good luck BB - if you get really really really desperate I'll come round and do it. But I really would be the last resort.

Bellenden Belle Posted March 31, 2008 Author Share Posted March 31, 2008 Thank you so much Giggirl and Moos for your kind words.It makes such a huge difference to actually customise a room... I imagine it's why teenagers spend so much time organising what's on their walls. I'm rather liking the idea of being a grown up teenager! Seriously I left before and spent six months refusing to do anything to my room in a shared house - cause it was temporary until I found a place of my own. No wonder I got depressed and gave up - my new philosophy is that this new place is my home, maybe for a week, maybe a month, maybe six months... and that making the effort to get my single room welcoming and lovely is a real act of healing and moving on.Hoorah!

giggirl Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Dearest BB - sorry but I retract my earlier offer. It's for your own good. My mate saw it and said that it sounded like you'd been in the wars enough already without me coming round and laying some dodgy DIY on you. There are other things at which I excell. Buying a round for example - I'm always good for that.

ChavWivaLawDegree Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Maybe go for Red satin and soft porn pics, make it a bouduoir as hommage to your new empowered singledom.

Bellenden Belle Posted March 31, 2008 Author Share Posted March 31, 2008 Oh Chav I think I will stick with finding out about masonary nails for the time being....unless that was a euphemism? I'm such a innocent (she says with wide eyes and her usual butter wouldn't melt expression)Giggirl - fair enuff, if u r coming on Friday mine will be a gin and tonic!
