About Painter Decorators: Elephant breath, fifty shades of white and 'the begrudged husband'

Published: Feb. 28, 2024, 3 a.m.

b"This week, our guest is Ruth, a professional decorator who rocks a pair of pink overalls and loves inspecting the paintwork in nightclub toilets! In this episode, we discover why there is more to the job than 'slapping a bit of paint on the walls' (Joe's words), why there are so many different shades of white, and how to actually wallpaper a wall. There is also a lot of talk about elephant breath, among other weirdly named colours.\\nWe're at the Clapham Grand with Things People Did every month, get your tickets here: https://linktr.ee/thingspeopledopod\\nIf you would like to be a guest on the show, click here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1rfSo3PVJgtBRZHCCAZndem-iyy2EdvGcEYDqycsM2aQ/viewform\\nTo get ad-free and longer episodes on Apple, hit the 'grow the show' button or click: https://apple.co/3sAX0xR\\nOn Spotify you can subscribe for \\xa31 a week by clicking this link: https://anchor.fm/thingspeopledo\\nTo become an official sponsor, go to Patreon.com/thingspeopledo\\nTo grow the show on socials, look for @thingspeoplepod on Instagram, Twitter and Tiktok\\nSend us your ideas for the show, and questions for Joe and Tom to joe@crowdnetwork.co.uk\\nMusic courtesy of BMG Production Music\\nLearn more about your ad choices.
