00:00I've never owned a toolkit. So I think you can guess where I'm going with that one.

00:07I think it's less hassle. Less hassle. Just go and get a few bits and pieces and do it.

00:15No, my husband is amazing. He just gets his toolkits out and just all the running repairs everywhere.

00:23I mean, things like gas, plumbing, things like that, but ordinary DIY.

00:35Sometimes I go for the YouTube side of things because I'm not very good. I'm not much of a handyman,

00:39but I've got friends who help me out, which I'm fortunate enough to have.

00:44It's good to try it yourself, kind of thing.

00:46It's good to try it yourself, hands-on, but I'm not really a hands-on man. I'm more a thinker than a doer.

00:52No, just have a go, look, read up on it. There's enough YouTube videos to help people if they want to have a go.
