Lip Gloss Aug 2019 6:58pm, 18 Aug 2019 35,397 posts	0 Lip Gloss I would certainly query the mount HP, I know it's not the same person but the size of the walls and what you want done hasn't changed - even if you reach a middle ground. Stir fry for supper

He felt we needed to blue grit the walls in order to safeguard against the wallpaper which is under layers of paint falling off and taking plaster with it. The other guy didn’t suggest that. I suspect this one knows his stuff but £700 v £300 is steep.

Been glued to my laptop doing a job application which I don’t know if I’m brave enough to send tomorrow plus I need to dig out a CV. Sore eyes. Might need to go to the pub.
