No coffee? I don't do beer or cake (the ale makes the cakes soggy and then i get currants in me pint)

As it is my boys & I this year, it may only be beer (please state choice)

The honours all mine! I'm trying to avoid alcohol this year... The last time i was at the big bash there was some alkie wedging pot noodles into a tree

Yes cat, You know the side windows on the bongo? Well those round cap things on the glass? Well they tend to look a bit worn and manky after a few years, the enamel paint i use is a relatively quick and very cheap fix ( a brew)to smarten them up a little bit

I've done quite a few now, and have become something of a dab hand (dabs' hand?) at it now!

Hopefully this piccy will show my painted caps a bit better, they are so shiny it's all reflections!



The caps on mine are painted gloss black.

I wouldn't go that far mate! But thanks!

Anything would look better than the dull manky originals mate
