But can other ceiling like PVC be done before plastering?
You have to plaster first before doing any ceiling.

Plastering before POP ceilings?
Thought everything that had to do with ceiling go before plastering?
No. You plaster before POP.

Think about it. If you do your POP and start plastering from bottom up, what do you expect to happen when cement mortar starts splashing and messing up your ceiling?

Nobody does POP before plastering.

And you are also entitled to yours. Lewandowski does pretty much everything you listed up there as much as Kane if not even better. Here we go again with 'the best league in the world' talk. Stop making it sound like the EPL is some kind of ultra-competitive league. Is this not the same league we are seeing Man City rack up cricket scores almost every weekend. Lewy would score goals anywhere. Be it in England or Italy.

Lewy was the first player in 50 yrs to hit 30 goals in the Bundesliga and guess what ? he did it again last season. 30 goals back-to-back. Let that sink in. Only Ronaldo and Messi has scored more CL goals in the last 4 seasons and he is still the only player to score 4 goals in a CL semifinal match. He has to bang in the goals for one of the biggest clubs on the planet while still carrying the hopes of an average footballing nation on his shoulders. Talk about pressure. Single-handedly carrying them to major competitions while topping the scorers' charts and breaking goalscoring records. Lewy has led teams to multiple title triumphs. Kane can't even help Spuds win a plastic spoon. Best striker in the world indeed. What's the point in scoring all these goals when you end up winning nothing.

If you are gonna argue, at least get your facts right. Kane is 24, not 22. And who told you Real weren't interested in Lewandowski? Google is your friend.[/quote][/s]

Is there a way I can make this standing lights work in Nigeria? They are 110v but Nigeria is 220v. I like them a lot but not available in Lagos.

Hi,

what I noticed with my is that the lights already come with 110v to 240v range in its mechanics. I was also told by a friend that recommended that I buy from US, all you have to do if the light is basic is to change the bulb and use the 240v instead. He worked for him and that's what he has in his Nigeria home and I saw it myself that it works.
Thanks for the reply.

Are you saying all I need to do is to just change the bulbs of standing lights?

What do I need to do to make them work in Nigeria?

I think you are getting something wrong here. I have nothing against Kane. He's clearly the best striker in the EPL. The only problem is you claiming he is the best in the world. The phrase you should have used is ' the most in-form striker'. There is form, and there is class. Class or quality trumps form. CR7 is clearly not in top form but does that mean he is not one of the top 2 players in the world?

I'm sorry, where did I insult you again? Now you are the one acting like a kid. I'm just gonna let this slide. Harry Kane is a fantastic footballer and I actually enjoy watching him play but the truth is Lewandowski is better.
You're entitled to your opinion. Lewadoski is not better than Kane. Maybe two years ago better than Kane but not in the last 18 months. Kane drops deep into midfield and build up from the back. Move the ball from either wings and provides assist in almost every game. He scores for fun. He's had 3-5 hatricks in 2017 alone in the best and most competitive league in the world.

I repeat, Harry Kane is not in league of Lewadoski at the moment. Harry Kane has scored 45 goals in 2017 alone despite missing 13 games in 2017 through ankle injury. Leave sentiment in the trash bag and be honest.

Harry Kane is the best no 9 in the world at the moment. He defends, moves the ball well, assists and scoring goals for fun. Real Madrid is circling him for a reason and not Lewadoski. Kane is only 22 years old and already scored more than 100 goals in the EPL. That's is not an easy task for a striker in England.

Is this some kinda joke? While Kane is definitely in the form of his life, he's got nothing on Lewy. How does being the younger player equate to being better. More skillful? Both are not the most skillful of players to begin with but trust me, I've seen some incredible tekkers from Lewy. One of his goals against PSV last season comes to mind. Lewy is very much involved in his team's build-up play, to be fair you can also say the same for Kane.


I've seen Kane struggle against teams who set up really tight at the back with little spaces in between. Lewy on the other hand will always find a way to breach such defenses. Just ask Juventus and Atletico.


Strong in the air, can hold up play, good with both feet. Lewandowski ticks all the boxes of a great striker. He has done it against the biggest teams in the world on the biggest stages. Who could ever forget that incredible 4-goal haul against Real Madrid? Just tell me another player who has scored 4 goals against a Jose Mourinho-coached team. Not even Messi or Ronaldo.

Or that crazy 5-goals in 9 minutes barrage against Wolfsburg that spawned a host of world record titles. Harry Kane should just stick to his 'local' exploits. Lewy no be im mate.
Eat your words. Harry Kane is the best striker in the world today. He's the most valuable striker based on his age and last three years stats. He has a staying power. You can go ahead and continue to throw more insult like a kid you're. I don't care

Harry Kane is gonna be here for a long time.

Turning logic on its head.
GEJ/PDP were the first to bring tribal politics to Nigeria. They started by terming APC a northern party because most of the care taker members were either northerners or muslims. Who will forget that Sambo went to the North and said APC was party for Christians because a pastor was the VP candidate, while GEJ was in Enugu to call APC a party for Northerners. Mama peace took it to a whole new height by calling the northerners as people who "born throway".

APC needed to get as much votes from a nation that had been ruled by PDP for a long time, it would not make sense therefore to try to alienate any part of the country when you are begging for votes, only a party who had begun to take people for granted could have done that.
Absolutely.

Buhari Must Go!!! No doubt about it but none of these clowns called Atiku, Fayose, Tinubu qualified to be president. They are all fantastically corrupt.

Buhari never prepared to govern or solve this country's problem. He just wanted to be president to fulfill his long held ambition. Everybody else can die. He doesn't really care. He has systematically killed the party that brought him to power and sidelined all the people who worked for him to get there. Buhari must be kicked out by any means necessary.

President can come from any part of the country. We need a non politician this time around.

Absolutely!! without a doubt.
My wife thought I was crazy to trust an absolute stranger, a Nigerian for that matter!! cheesy with an ungodly sum of money not only to deliver but to deliver the agreed numbers and agreed quality or better. on some occassions He upgraded some items they didnt have in stock and left it open for me to choose to pay or not pay for the upgrades.most sellers would downgrade and tell you its the same or not tell you at all. I am a very good judge of character and I study ppl before I even attempt to engage them.

useful recommendations, high end brands, and good after sales relations. some items were damaged during transit and were replaced without plenty grammar. Once most sellers collect Money, you are O-Y-O
Alcopacetic is simply the best.

Imagine he upgraded some of items I paid for but no more in stock. I went ahead to pay him for upgrade he did today but surprisingly he said I didn't need to.

In contrast, I paid someone to supply some materials to me exactly a week ago and I'm yet to see the items delivered. The person is also on nairaland property section.

Blend-in, whenever you come around: Dress-mode only can give you out because there are some clothes that are obviously not sold in Nigerian markets that when worn new, means the person has "just landed". grin grin

- Drop the Americana ascent.
- Watch were you change currency
- Avoid Night Clubs, that is the number one place to get marked.
- In your hood, know the bad-boys by name and occassionally, blend with them (if you can)
- Do community service (pay for it) when things come up
- Be very observant and look strangers right in the eye so they know you will recognise them anytime after
- Do the usual security stuffs ( Dogs, Cameras, elelctric fence, High Walls, Iron Grills, e.t.c) so they know you are also conciosus of what is gwan and dont like petty thieves. undecided undecided
- keep some raw cash at home because it might be necessary to "negotiate and settle' in the middle of the night rather than let some angry Youth use you for target practice.
