Default Domestic peace, my method

As we are in a new house, today was bathroom fixture install day.

My higher domestic authority had approved the location of this item.

I was then asked if after it was up I would be capable of putting a roll on it.

As you know I am not a very technical kind of guy.

How did I do?

You failed. There isn't a pile of once-used tools, grubby handprints on the fresh paint, and scratches on the carefully applied factory brushed finish.

Robin,
Thanks for the image. I have just finished remodelling my downstairs powder room and I shared this with my co-workers who were asking for potos of my handy-work.

Fortunately, I don't have a Residential Sgt-Major to satisfy so I may actually load-up a roll that way for my next dinner party.
