...assuming I can describe them well enough in the first place :)
There are plastic hooks for putting up paintings etc, normally white but are not self adhesive - they have three (I think) tiny pins/nails that you use to fix them to the wall. The idea is you don't need to damage the wall with a big hole I think.
Anyone know where they can be bought?
Cheers :-\

B&Q
-
Most hardware stores, I think they are called plaster depth picture hooks.
-
I bought a box of them in the local 99p shop and brought them over to Turkey to hang our pictures.
-
I got mine in B and Q but no good if you want something to lay flat to the wall they jut out quite a bit
-
B+Q or hombase--save you parking for the town.
-
Thanks all, what a shame we don't have a 99p shop

Perth must be far to posh for a 99p shop:D

It certainly is, we have Poundland :D

Might be cheaper parking and going to poundwhatever
Alternatively homebase do brass effect from 1.08. Saves you fighting traffic on the Dunkeld /Crieff road.
I have a great need to get a life:(
-
That's the sort of thing, thanks :)

You can take the boy out of Bedfordshire but you can't take Bedfordshire out of the boy ?

No chance, we're moving nearer the chippy!

Keith - remember you should be able to get a discount on a Wednesday at B & Q - if they don't ask for ID and just go by your appearance and physical attributes :D :D
-
You should get a discount and a wheelchair assistant then lol
-
That's because you won't change my picture that was sent just before my haemorrhoid operation!!!! :D
