Made in the UKDid you watch the Eurovision Song Contest? We’ve yet to find anyone who admitted to doing so – and yet, curiously, everyone still seems to know all all the details about the show and be willing to voice their opinions on it!
With the approach of Father’s Day came the inevitable arrival of adverts aimed at Dads and what to buy them! Many typical “man gifts” are related to DIY, so here we feature a Top Five of useful – if sometimes bizarre – DIY gifts for the Dad in your life!
Do you remember that old poem about a young lady called Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout whose main failing in life was not taking the garbage out? Whether this was bloody-mindedness or some kind of phobia is unclear, but the poem starts off in a fairly jovial fashion – “she simply would not take the garbage out” – and ends badly – “Poor Sarah met an awful fate, That I cannot right now relate, Because the hour is much too late. But children, remember Sarah Stout And always take the garbage out.”
At DIY Homefit when helping customers with kitchen refurbishment we sometimes get asked about the removal of old kitchen furniture. Whilst the usual routes are either the local tip or a Council collection – or perhaps Freecycle if the items are in good enough condition…

In these political times, colours take on increasing significance! A recent DIY Homefit blog explored the various different shades of green that are available for sliding wardrobe doors.

At DIY Homefit we love a good movie, and are looking forward to seeing the new Disney blockbuster Cinderella! In one of our Christmas blogs we mentioned the Cinderella story in the context of pantomime season. The key to the story is that the lost glass slipper will only fit one person’s foot, which is how the Prince finally manages to identify his true love.
At DIY Homefit we love Spring time! It symbolises hope and new beginnings, with the first sign of daffodils, tulips, bluebells capturing the countryside. Colour is everywhere….
Whilst celebrating new beginnings, how about taking a look round your home and seeing what you might like to change?
