Hi all, hope you're all having a good weekend whatever you're doing.

I'm having a DIY weekend, tackling some jobs I've been meaning to do but never seem to manage to get round to doing.. have just finished installing a loft ladder, and putting some electric points and lighting up there. Gonna start putting down some flooring next. Then I will have loads of extra storage space so I can have a major de-clutter and free up some much needed floor space. You can hardly move in my flat!

The loft ladder was a real bargain at just £35 from Wilkinson's (ordered it online for delivery) and got 10% discount. I've seen the same ladders or very similar selling for £100+. It's one of those that stows away inside the loft and slides down..everything is included to convert the loft hatch door into a hinged locking door.. I'm not the most handy person when it comes to DIY but I found it fairly easy to install. Surprisingly it's a quality British made product, so having clear English instructions helped.

Also picked up a sturdy looking work bench for a tenner from Wilkinson's (currently on sale) not sure if it's any good as still waiting for it. That should come in handy for DIY jobs and e-bike work as I have bought a vice to mount on it.
