    Busy afternoon painting the sign above the local charity shop, it's very fiddly but I have a steady hand, and no it's not finished!

    I am doing this for free - though they pay for the paint, not that I have any agenda but doing this is a magnet for more work as I must have handed out a dozen cards to folks wanting (paid) painting work done.

    • painted signage is very much back in vogue down here in LDN, which is great - whilst I cut a lot of plastic for a living, I hate most plastic signage.Nairn

    • I do but need glasses for close work and I have really nice handwriting so I think that helps! Folks talking to me walking past is the worst distraction tbhGardener

    • The sign painters in Edinburgh would usually charge between £500-£1000 for some letters like that. They got a bargainPhanLo
