I actually got to the end of the roll. There was none left. I would have had to have gone to the diy store to buy some more but for the three other practically brand new rolls I found in the bottom of the tool box. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=48255#post-138923 Tue, 18 Sep 2012 20:27:34 +0000 button 138923@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Have you been doing some DIY today dvo? </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=48255#post-138921 Tue, 18 Sep 2012 20:05:19 +0000 DustyBinLaden 138921@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>This one really tested my suspension of disbelief. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=48255#post-138867 Tue, 18 Sep 2012 15:04:45 +0000 medici2471 138867@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>I love Polyfilla and usually get hard well before the end of the tub... </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=48255#post-138864 Tue, 18 Sep 2012 14:49:04 +0000 Perks 138864@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Nice, and nice punch line.

Even when I’ve replaced that funny sheet of film before putting the lid back on, every job needs a new tub,” admits Mr Ashraf. </p> <p>“Fortunately it was only three days since I’d patched up some flaws in the walls before my wife threw another pan of Spaghetti Bolognese at me. It bounced off my head and left a dent in the plasterwork. It was touch and go, but when I opened the tub and checked, there was just enough elasticity left in it.” </p> <p>“This claim has yet to be independently verified” said a spokesperson for Polycell UK “but if replicated across the country, we could find ourselves in a sticky position.” </p>
