DIY disastersI 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.
Tell us of your own DIY disasters.

The opposite is equally true:Girls, don't assume that because your other half has some dangly man-bits, that he automatically knows the best methods to paint a wall, or the correct drillbit to use when drilling into an artex ceiling.
I learnt my DIY skills from my mother, because my dad wasn't around to teach me. My mum is useless at DIY, and so am I. Give either of us a piece of wood and a saw or jigsaw, and I guarantee there will not be a straight line to be found!
