Anyone got some good tips for painting interior walls? I was looking at the 18" rollers and the thicker ones. Are these worth the £? I hate painting so anything that makes it less painful/quicker would be good.

I've already purchased tape for the edge. After a drink or two I can't be trusted to stay in the lines.

So advice is conflicting. I'm going to use logic then. Do all the cutting in first, get drunk, then the rest will be a blur. I hate painting!

I know you're right. We had a quote of £120 to do the hallway which I think is a bargain. I decided we would get the whole house done next time we go on holiday. That won't be until later next year and now I'm sick of looking at yellow walls (no offence to those who like yellow) so with 10 days off for Christmas it could be a good chance to do the job myself.
