I spoke to the Taloned One the other day and she wishes to be remembered to you all. She still isn't online yet but she's getting there. The move went fairly well and she's in the middle of trying to decorate. The trouble is, everytime she starts somewhere, when she pulls the paper off the walls, the bloody plaster comes too so she has to wait for the plasterer again.
Anyway, she hopes everyone is keeping well and is warning that she's saving up all her naughtiness for her return, and wants Herby to know that she has something extra extra extra special for him

OOOooo how exciting, i can hardly wait, i do like surpises, i wonder what it will be. 
Please send Grockie my regards, Lizzie, and tell her she might be better getting a wallpaper striper instead of using her talons, she will probably do a lot less damage to the plaster.

Dear Lizzie, i don't have any vaseline, but what i do have, is some baby oil that is hid away for special occasions.
Kind Regards, Old Herbaceous.

A Victorian house is it? The lime and grit plaster is a P.I.T.A. I know. I once put up some shelves in ours and at one point when I drilled the bit caught a small piece of grit and suddenly I had a hole 2 inches wide.
Suggest to grockie that she might wet the wallpaper well before pulling it off.

Hi Mike
Yep, it's about 1900ish. She was using a steamer but there were about 4 layers of wallpaper on there.......it was horrible. The previous people had found there was a problem so just papered over the paper
She's like me and would rather just paint straight over the plaster instead of faffing about. She'll get there in the end
