Oh Russell you make my day when I read your videos My Son is just this he hasn't got a clue about DIY Who cares I love him unconditionally So I have had good laugh now Thank you Russell
I hate football and I'm crap at DIY but I like to try DIY mainly because I don't want to be ripped off by someone else doing it for me. Same with the car. I hardly do anything on the car and always feel I'm being ripped off at the garage. Biggest thing I've ever done on it was change the headlight houses because I got warned about it in my MOT. I think the garage was upset after because they lost out of charging me loads for them to do it for me. Took me two days and the housings were off Ebay. They've been going fine for 7 years. Nice.
I don't mind if a man isn't good a DIY because I've had a knack for it all my life. Now, as far as cars are concerned, I pretty much only know how to add windshield washer fluid, fuel, and how to change a tire. Anything beyond that, she goes into the shop.
We all only have so much time in our lives to learn things, and not all of us are equally good at things. I think the important thing is to have at least some basic life skills. You don't have to be a chef, but be able to cook a few things so not all your money goes on food you're only buying because you can't cook. Even that example isn't a perfect one. Some people genuinely can't cook for themselves. But it is good to have a few skills you can rely on in life / an emergency. Some of those skills social skills. Russell, for example, you're pretty good with emotional honesty. The person who calmly puts up a unit with the podcast and tea was probably less anxious to begin with, which helps. A lot of flatpacks are poorly made. If you don't have any diy skills, they can be pretty treacherous. If you have a wonky one and the instructions are telling you one thing and the holes don't line up, you're going to be more out of your depth than the person who can spot that the problem is the unit, not them. Anyway, keep fighting the good fight against toxic masculinity. And be kind to yourself too.
Omg the comments on here are brilliant so funny and so honest Absolutely brilliant and so true I love honesty like this I too are not very good at DIY I couldn't care less I try to get someone who won't ripp me off I have had the odd cowboy but who hasn't
I can’t do DIY and we are trying to decorate our house 🤣 I have so many units and flat pack stuff to put up I keep hiding it so I don’t have to do it 🤣
Last bit of DIY I did was painting a wall (is painting DIY? - probably not). It drove everyone insane because I just did it bit by bit over a couple of weeks (it was an outside wall so it didn't matter it wasn't done all in one go). I had ruined the magic of DIY. This was especially the case when I left I few feet of wall un-finished before finally painting it another day - practically caused mental break downs of anyone who saw it.
I look like a builder. Can't do DIY. Can't do manual labour. Did a Fine Art degree and when I said I was studying painting people thought I meant painting and decorating! Costs me an arm and a leg to get trades folk in to do jobs - and the look of utter contempt they give me...!
I'm not surprised. Your brain doesnsiund like it's wired ip to cope with practical and useful tasks. I hope your art is of quality though. Got to make a living somehow!
The ones who are annoying are ones who think they know everything. They do plumbing and electrical tasks but have no qualification or safety certificate to prove their competency. They dabble and usually balls it up. There are levels of DIY. Some are so basic that it would annoy me if anyone to attempt to do them eg change a plug, change a light bulb, build flar pack furniture using the step by step instructions. Incapable basic simpletons fo my head in!
Hilarious rant as usual Russell. I'm curious though; IRL is your Dad good or bad at DIY? Sorry but the continuity in this painted a man who can put up a shelf by looking at it, but would set fire to a flat pack. 😂 I happened to notice, and it got me wondering which of the "my old man" anecdotes was based on your real father.
I hate football but I do virtually all DIY except big plastering Jobs and brick laying. I wouldn't say I'm great but determined and get good results. In the end

A male partner broke up with me once because - in his words - 'you have more tools than me and it makes me feel like less of a man.'
Useless tosser
That wasn't the real reason
I’m a 35 year old man and I have no DIY stills
Oh Russell you make my day when I read your videos
My Son is just this he hasn't got a clue about DIY
Who cares I love him unconditionally
So I have had good laugh now
Thank you Russell

The last IKEA assembly my husband attempted ended with a trip to the hospital for a gash in his forehead and concussion. Lol
The toolbox in my house is my wifes. She protects me when moths get in the house as well.
hehehe - thanks for the giggle :)
I attempted DIY, both the shelf and desk that I made were destroyed. I only do it because I like inevitably breaking shit.
You are the best , just love your comedy
Love this guy he cracks me up

Russell you give me so much joke hahahahaha
I'm not the only one then
It is indeed true that in the Milgrim experiments that there was no difference in the outcomes of males and females.
😂 you're so funny
Why does your calm DIY voice sound like Tim Farrow??
Relatable.
Haaaa...one of his best...haaa.
I can do any DIY in fact I'm painting and putting shelves up today.......but I need a man to save me from spiders :-/
Oh dear. That's tragic.
I am the diy queen in the house. My recent project i made a stair slide out of mdf 😂
Omg this is hilarious
No worries mate, I can't do stand up......
You love pug sushi????
Must be an Essex thing
Hilarious rant as usual Russell.

I believe it was both. His dad was good at it but also sometimes would fail.
Haha I luv Russell Kane
