What would be ferrous then as in what material will it tell me by doing this method?Try a magnet. If it's ferrous, magnet will stick. If not, it's likely wood or masonry both of which should take a nail ok.

Looks like the same blue as i was painting last weekFinally completed the walls in the lounge. Had to do 3 coats of Dulux Polished Pebble over what was quite light magnolia looking original paint. It just didn't look right with 2 coats. 3 definitely much better.
I've promptly ruined the area above the fireplace whilst trying to fit a mirror and left scratches on the wall. That blue is not very forgiving with scratches. So will have to go over it with another coat on that wall now.

I think I prefer the desk to the mouse pad! Looks like neat enough work to me. Isn't it a sort of coffee table height though?Not sure it counts as a Man Job, but i was fed up using the kitchen counter after 8 months of WFH, and it looks like it'll go on a little longer yet. Didn't want to buy a desk, so got some Birch Ply from the shed and stuck a few legs on it.
It's pretty wobbly. It really needs a cross brace along the back, but i didn't have a piece of wood long enough to hand. Im hoping that sorts it!
It's also not sanded properly and it covered in saw dust from being in the shed. My wife is definitely not a fan.
A cheapskate after my own heartIt's probably a little low for me. I googled average desk height and everything seemed to suggest ~90cm so i went with that.
I'm debating painting the legs white, but then it means i can't re-use the wood as easily!

Tried to install a new light in the bedroom. I should have learnt when I tried to change the light in the living room three months ago. Once I unscrew the existing rose and met with more wires than expected i bottle it. So I called an electrician and they’ve quoted me £50 for installation of both.
If you posted a picture I'm sure people could help. £50 sound about right though, its simply not worth doing the job for less.
