    Finally managed to coax the enthusiasm out of myself to do some more of the endless painting job (the stairs/hall trim). Opened the tin.

    The paint was mouldy.

    I mean, mouldy, as in, the lid of the tin had furry bobbles growing on it.

    Seriously.

    I mean, it’s been a month, but I don’t expect paint to get furry at all.

    Feh. 

    …I’m fairly certain this is just your building materials finding new and creative ways to thwart you.

    Mold.

    On month-old paint.

    …whut.

    It is INSANITY

    I’ve paint that’s years old that I’ve used.

    I’m blaming the strange irish low-odour paint that we bought. And attempting to get my ass in gear to finish painting a weee bit more rapidly, before it turns into a sentient life form and redecorates for us in its own inimitable style.
