Don't forget to take your water based paints out from the van of a night, you might get a nasty surprise when you go to use it otherwise.

oh my gosh. I have never seen anything like it. we don't get snow and ice here. we dont even own heavy winter coats. we might get 10 to 20 days of cold weather where we have to wear pants. lol I would not survive that kind of weather. I commend all of you for toughing those kinds of winters 60 degrees is cold to me

Make sure you carry a spare pair of tights, if you dont fancy wearing them in this cold weather,  Wink you could always use them to strain your paint. Smiley

Welcome to the forum Cora, and especially to the decorators section.  Gets kinda lonely in this bit sometimes.

I see you are in London, whereabouts?

Hello there hamilton,(I like your name, they make good brushes) lol  thankyou too for your warm welcome  Smiley
I am not exactly in london but Greater London, Middlesex to be exact, not far from heathrow airport.

The furthest I would travel into london is ealing, as to be honest I dont like london much, its changed over the years, the money is great, but not good stresswise, so I tend to work Local, which suits me. Smiley

Where are you from?

Woodford Green. Ten minutes from Epping Forest if you walk, and twenty minutes from Liverpool Street Station by train.

I'm in Essex by about 100 metres, otherwise it would be East London.

Oh, deep joy. NOT.

What are your temperatures there.  It seems to me that certain jobs would be seasonal there.  I hate it when it's 50 to 60 degrees here and my hands get wet from the wet saw. Grin
