Lets look at the good bits:

  • I measured carefully
  • I made a plan
  • I got SWMBO to check my plans
  • the plasterer kindly tied string to loops of wire (his suggestion)
  • I stuck to the plan
  • I marked out the ceiling to the mm with string and 
  • I bought those Bosch (natch) hole saws - the ones that eject the cut out ; bit like using a pump action shotgun innit
  • I used a DADE (thanks for the tip   @Mr Punter) - my armpits are not longer full of plaster dust
  • I said my prayers this morning like mummy told me

 

And still I screw up. 16 holes to cut and I still screw up.  Twice. 

 

They're going to have to put me in a home. Well, my surname is Simpson.
