Bath leaking through the ceiling. Removing and replacing silicon sealant is one of those jobs I REALLY hate ! :evil:

Two lines of tape and smooth it with a wet finger. And chuck a dustsheet in the bath so you don't scratch it. :)

Cheers Shaun. Tape already lined up - found that method a few years ago. Works a treat. Worst bit is getting the old stuff off. Have a dedicated scraper but its still a pain.
For smoothing I've found white spirit or diluted fairy liquid works well

Yeah that helps.
You've probably done it by now but the trick is not running out of clean fingers :) (silicon gloves)? And not getting too much or too little on to start with.

But its a crap job, how can something so hard to remove be so rubbish at doing it's job! I tried some of those preformed angles once and they're a bit of a bodge really.

..... And don't forget to relieve the pressure on your caulking gun when you put it down, or you turn your back on it and you get a 6" worm of silicon on your tiles :roll:

What an absolute mess Twitter has become

I've had 4 DM's since Sunday, and only 1 was from a decent person
The other 3 were:
1) A bloke calling me all the F's and C's under the sun for supporting the monarchy
2) Some Crypto finance dude wanting to sell me shit
3) An account with a female wanting to exchange photos of my cock for her fanny.....which is clearly a blackmailing or scamming Nigerian (probably running the crypto finance account too)

The website gave a 3 day suspension to black American professor Uju Anya for wishing the queen a painful death, but will permanently suspend anyone calling her a bitch!
You see Trans Rights Activists threatening to kill Terfs, but if you misgender someone......you get permanently suspended

Such a shame

Simple solution. Just stay away from Twitter
Nobody is probably that interested in your opinions anyway....

I find Twitter depressing to be honest. I don't bother looking at what's trending anymore because whatever the topic its usually just very shouty people throwing insults at each other.

Its still very useful for keeping up to date with different subjects and following people who might make you a bit smarter and more informed but ultimately its the capital of the universe for the insecure.

I was considering making an offer for Twitter but I've changed my mind after reading this.

When the leak is above another persons home is when it becomes tricky.
