              I never thought to take a pic' of the lead gas pipe that was behind the lime mortar (it would have fed a wall light when the bungalow was built)

                I knew that there was a reason (besides the small matter of a race) that I was meeting you at Harper Adams on Sun and not meeting at your place on Sat for the Shrewsbury Gardener's do!

                  You have my sympathy!

                  *Shakes head in a been there done that kinda way*

                  I was quite surprised to find out just how much plastering hurts - either your wrists or your wallet - depending on which method you choose

                      I was taught "patch plastering" as part of my apprenticeship but this is stretching "patch" a bit beyond my skill set Thelma However I may have a plan

                        Yes Jay, it really is my home TBH Mrs. BB won't be overly surprised, sadly every room that I redecorated here todate has needed some degree of plastering repair

                            Looks like over board and skim then. Some blokes and their big hammers.

                            By the way how much of that 'lead' pipe is there. very high tin content should be worth a few bob...

                              Only about 2 1/2 feet Potty, doubtless there will be more under the floor upstairs but that room is finished so the pipe can stay there bud, got a few sheets & some dabbing, then just need "clever Trevor" to tape & skim over
