Why is it...

...when you start one job you make a dozen other ones
While decorating the kitchen one of the brackets supporting the curtain rail broke and that particular rail has 'been discontinued' so I had to replace the lot.
..I needed a new blind, when it arrived it was 2cm shorter than advertised so wouldn't fit and had to be combined with bits of the old one to make it fit.

I started the bathroom today and after removing a panel discovered the loo is leaking now I am going to have to find a plumber who will probably say he can't fix the leak without replacing the loo...

Remind me not to do any more decorating this year...

Re: Why is it...

You often find that, Meg, one thing tends to lead to another and then you wish you had never started the blooming job in the first place!

I hope you eventually get it all sorted out...

Re: Why is it...

So agree meg, started clearing out a cupboard yesterday and now have to do the rest as I found rather too much rubbish so wondering what else we are keeping we really don't need any more. Freecycling the lot seems the answer - but that is something else to do

Yes, I can relate to that. And had to laugh at Mups' response! Heh heh.
