Uhu sticky pads! I discovered them this year, after decades of using push pins, and they’re an absolute game changer! No sore thumb, no accidentally dropping one on the floor and rushing to find it before someone steps on it! Just quick and easy and it works.

I’m fully expecting to have to touch up my paintwork come January, but I can live with that!

If you’re not squeamish there’s a channel on YouTube called The Institute of Human Anatomy that is run by a cadaver lab for teaching medical students and they recently did a video on this subject. It’s a fascinating channel, no gore (all the cadavers have been preserved) but they are real cadavers, so if that gives you the ick then probably best to avoid.
