It's been a pretty rough year for many of you, and, I think, you guys over there have had it far worse than us.
I hope your Christmas day goes well, and the coming year proves to be far better than the one just gone.
Merry Christmas all.

But one thing is for certain, without e-cigarettes we would all still be puffing our way into a potentially early demise ... I'm convinced of that. Had I not found vaping all those years ago, I do believe I'd not be in the same place now. Likely, I would be, at best, fighting one of the many nasty diseases smoking is known to cause. Or worse. I am convinced I've "dodged a bullet". SWMBO is of the same opinion. We are both so thankful I found about e-cigarettes and "gave them a go".

Sorry - can't offer any help for the fence painting. Not a job I'd fancy .... But: I've had situations inside where regular paint simply didn't cover well even after several coats. Either because the existing colour was too deep/strong or, in one particularly troublesome place, stains kept coming through (rat piss stains in the ceiling). I found that the local big box hardware recommended and supplied a shellac based stain seal/primer/undercoat. It worked exceptionally well. And, being shellac based, it is pretty universal for what it will cover and what will cover it. Good luck with your garden improvement/makeover.
I've heard of Zinser BIN primer and used some cover-all on some water staining. However I have 11 panels to paint and BIN primer would be ruinously expensive. No, not for outside. Hence my saying "can't help with the fence". And agree, Zinsser ain't cheap. Likely it isn't suitable for external use either. But for those problem internal surfaces ... like covering old tobacco smoke stains, kero heater stains, animal stains, very stong past colours - which can all blead thro follow on top coats - a dedicated "stain blocker" primer makes things much easier.

Sorry - can't offer any help for the fence painting. Not a job I'd fancy .... But: I discovered after applying many coats of my paint that the best thing to do is to use grey emulsion to hide the colour, then overpaint with something less hideous.
