No1 daughter sent me a pic of the tin of Johnston's Bathroom paint..
She's had it for a while (stored indoors) and thinks there's something wrong with it!

I think she's correct!

Well. Daughter got a reply from Johnstone..
'Either you or B&M must have stored it incorrectly.. Tough t*itty'

I bought the same paint in Feb 24 & ½ of it was used; the remainder has been in the shed for two winters & two summers, plus last months heat, and was perfectly fine when I checked it yesterday.
Oh well. She's dumped it and had to a new one.

TIP: If you're changing a kitchen or bathroom tap that comes with a new drain plug, get yourself a "Thomas Dudley waste seal kit".

It will save you a big headache with leaks under the sink. No need for silicone sealant and PTFE tape. These things should come supplied as standard with all new sink drains!

Use them every time, sometimes the new drain plug can be a bit short though.

Let me know if you need a hand?

I have loads of tools. Also long coach screws if making raised beds

In building a horse shelter ATM it's a stable job!
