Lockdown bucket list.

20 Replies

My usual weekend morning routine is to get up, have a coffee and think about a plan for the day. However, as we are in lockdown it makes this task pretty limited.

A work colleague made a good suggestion - a lockdown bucket list. Basically, the things that you’ve meaning to do at home but have always put off.

With this in mind I’m going to create a lockdown bucket list and work my way through that.

What would be on your lockdown bucket list ? 😁

The house has been cleaned to within an inch of its life so I'm gonna do a jigsaw puzzle that was bought for me many many many years ago & I've never got round to doing.

My table is doubling up as my office at the moment! Need to order a jigsaw board from the on live shopping websites, not cheapest though!

I’m now literally sitting watching paint dry. It’s absolutely fascinating.

Well that's not gonna keep you riveted for long if you're only doing small areas!

Done that

I’m going to gloss over a couple of grubby patches in the bathroom so there sealed. Let them dry then paint over them with normal paint.

What do you call normal paint? It's very difficult to paint over gloss.

in reply to Lezzers

Emulsion, It takes a few coats over the gloss but it does eventually work.

Won't it look a different colour to the rest of the bathroom? As you've got time on your hands why not paint the whole bathroom? 🛀

in reply to Lezzers

No I’ve only got little odds and ends of paint. In all honesty I’d love a new bathroom. Done like a fancy hotel bathroom.

You could do a mural as Banksy calls them or a muriel as Hilda calls them! Maybe nautical... 🐠 🦈 🐳 🐙 🐡

The walls would look lovely with 3 flying birds on it.

As Banksy is from Bristol he might call them Muriels as well...... only joking, the intrusive Bristle 'L' is disappearing.....
