    I think everyone's stolen my sun again, it's rubbish here! Typically I watered the garden yesterday evening too. 😆

    It went from pouring rain here to sunny, back to blustery. Very odd weather!

    I think we have rain forecast for this evening @Sandy_123,I've ordered Mr Teigr to crack on with cleaning the deck before it starts.

    It don't look too bad at the moment @Teigr he might get a few hours at it. I've not been out yet but I'm only popping to the shop

    It'll need staining next @Sandy_123 ,I was going to do it last year but the weather turned before I got around to it.

    Its a bit risky getting it dry before the rain @Teigr unless it drys quick

    We haven't bought what we need to stain it yet @Sandy_123,we don't want to use the stuff we used last time because it's rubbish.

    Expensive rubbish.

    Its hard getting the right stuff I have that problem buying gloss at the moment @Teigr every time I spot one the reviews are rubbish , maybe b&q

    I hate using gloss paint @Sandy_123,our carpenter recommended one when he replaced parts of our staircase.It's okay,but not the miracle product he made it out to be and it's useless for painting anything outdoors.

    Yeah it's hard to choose a proper one but got to get 1soon. Wilko paint was good but they've gone now

    Yeah,I always want something hard wearing and quick drying.

    Low odour is a plus too.

    I didn't think you could use chalk paint on wood only for up cycling @nicebrit

    I'm going to buy a tester pot if they sell them. I don't like working with Gloss or satin, I'm not buying it yet, but I will do some research beforehand 😊
