One day I was tending to the eye level gas grill when a tile floated off the ceiling and landed on the cooker .... The house I'm in now had polystyrene coving in the dining room. Talking of coving, a strip of plaster coving in the loo started to come unstuck, so hubs eventually glued it back up with no more nails, and wedged a floor mop to it from the window sill - he told me it needed 70 hours to set. When I took it down the sponge had been glued to the coving, it looks like a fungus up there now!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09330730759503585904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5677913901738632312.post-2367217642533968582014-01-16T20:34:12.563+00:002014-01-16T20:34:12.563+00:00I had those polystyrene ceiling tiles in the kitch...I had those polystyrene ceiling tiles in the kitchen of my old flat, they were a bastard to remove and left the ceiling in such a state that I had to replaster.

There will be pictures just like yours in the best magazines heralding the glory of polystyrene and the rustic nature of bowed ceilings and black mould. No? We have the same ceiling tiles in our politely called 'utility room'/ impolitely called 'shed/dump' and much worse. We've managed to ignore them for twenty years so I look forward to some inspiration from your good self.Good start you brave, brave woman!
