Yep... I've been on my own about 25 years. There is almost nothing I won't try myself before asking someone else to do it. Thankfully, most things aren't that hard. I never really minded trying and learning, even before I was on my own.

You're a dab hand. I might have to pay you to come over and replace my kitchen! :OD
