DIY disasters
I just can't do power tools. They always fly out of control and end up embedded somewhere they shouldn't. I've no idea how I've still got all the appendages I was born with.
Add to that the fact that nothing ends up square, able to support weight or free of sticking-out sharp bits and you can see why I try to avoid DIY.

Ooh it's like you're describing my flat! I too hate wallpaper (everywhere and tin foil glued to the wall in places too), discovered a rotted kitchen and had a green bathroom. The suite was advocado with some tasteful advocado tiles and a particularly attractive bath length plastic shelf thing in the same shade.
The bit that confused me was the dark green wallpaper, it wasn't even a shade that matched the advocado and when does a shower ever really work well with wallpaper?
