Post GBBO

After watching the GBBO, the telly box thing somehow got stuck on channel 4+1. Oh, dear God, it was some sort of Kirsty Allplop's 'fill your house for free' best of (I know…)
I would, of course, like to make a few points.
Why do media DIYers never wear work appropriate clothing? The guy Max would be either dead or disfigured in a matter of minutes if he attempted to use any of our workshop gear dressed in a tie and loose blazer. And as for Kirsty Allplop wearing a Cath Kidston style pinnie while 'sawing' a chair up and their female designer dressed up for the nightclub, but in fact sanding and sealing.
Moving on…thanks Allplop for that handy tip that not only does your cordless drill make holes, but can also save you a lot of time by driving the screws in! Yes, thanks - I wondered why they're called drill/drivers. Perhaps a better tip would have been to advice the cannon fodder you made strip paint off a door to wear a mask - that might have been lead based paint.
Anyway the old set top unjammed and we all moved on…quickly.

Here is a picture of work appropriate gear (not 6" gold platforms)…
