I know...sexist to say the least

How DIY minded are you and I don't mean at giving yourself an orgasm

Can you change a plug or a car tyre etc....?

Can you wallpaper or do any kind of plumbing jobs etc etc...??

I’m pretty good. I do all the decorating in my house. I would love to learn carpentry

I can do some stuff but I'd rather pay someone else to do it.

I renovated a house years ago and did a lot of stuff myself, but these days I'd rather not be hands on.

I'm ok at doing things, I struggle with wallpapering though.

Won't lie, if someone would do it for me I'd much prefer that option.

I hate wallpaper but I do all the painting/glossing.

I hate electrics so I don't do any of that.

I do all the building of furniture.

Fairly good.

I've renovated two houses...that gets expensive very quickly if you can't do a good chunk of the work yourself. Plus I love power tools

I fitted a new toilet waste pipe a couple of weeks ago as the seal was leaking.

I can definitely change tyres, and do basic maintenance and repairs on cars

Hmm I wash my hands with swarfega make of that what you will.

I’ve lived alone all my adult life with no man so put together all my own flat pack, take care of my own spiders. Can bleed radiators, do the pressure on a boiler. Some things with the car, can diagnose more than repair. I put oil and water and screen wash in myself and air in the tyres but that’s about it.

I like painting.

Woodwork, mostly, but walls too, indoors and outdoors.

Just as well really, we have to paint our boats soon.

Nah I’m more of a GSI person than DIY. (Get someone in). I’m useless at pretty much everything except the things I’m not. Lol

I’m very self sufficient on the basic stuff.. having lived alone for 11 years I have to be. I’m lucky that I have a fab ex husband for anything more complicated. But I prefer not to ask and have a crack myself.

I built a stud wall and converted my garage into an office space. Mostly by myself.

But I'm rubbish at car stuff.

I'm very DIY. Decorating, plastering, rendering, plumbing, electrical work and yes, I can change the tyres and other bits and bobs on my car
