Re: handy hint

["Campbell" <c.macd@xxxxxxx>]

What about don't try to paint a from a step ladder leaning against a wall.

I full 7.5 litre tin, on 12ft high garage door, driveway on a slope so I
couldn,t use the ladder open and leant it against the door.....Holding the
paint in one hand, painting with the other....the bl##dy thing slid and I
tumbled..faster than the paint, which ended completely covering my hair, my
clothes and 1/2 the drive.....

A hard earned lesson, not to mention sore....especially from using thinners
on hair and skin then scrubbing for days....never again, I now use abrush
on
a pole.
