Hello my name is Adrian Fulcher ,I have been plastering for 44 yrs both modern and in the last 15 yrs traditional Suffolk lime plastering.Have any of you used Anglia limes haired chalk plaster it is a exapt replica of the lime they used a hundred yrs ago. The amazing thing about it is you can put it on just about any surface , up to 40mm in one go, and believe me it rarely cracks. Any how a completely different subject ,I was reading on this forum about shoulder pain well I can tell you a good story about that. Twenty yrs ago I tore my right rotator cuff after falling of a ladder, the surgeon after MRI examination said it was so bad a test it was unoperable.He then said I would have to give up plastering I said are you going to pay my mortgage. I managed to trowel up with my left after a while, but the amazing thing is how you start to use your abdominal muscles and the large lattisimus dorsi in your back to compensate for the shoulder. muscle .I then fell of my bike after hitting a pothole and tore my left cuff so both arms were knackered but I am still plastrering 14 yrs later ,so if any of you have similar trouble let your body adjust natural y for you.Anyhow I expect you have heard enough from me. Looking forward to a reply.
