　　English people like DIY．There is a saying in UK－“As Englishman’s home is his castle”．Huge number of people spend their holidays making their homes beautiful “castles”．If there is anything that needs fixing around their homes, such as painting the walls or putting in a new shower, they will do the jobs themselves．They share DIY experience with their friends．More and more people have discovered the joy of DIY．Sometimes people also DIY for saving money．With the economic downturn at present, many people can not afford a big house．They are looking at how they can make their house better without spending a lot of money．It is not surprising that DIY is so popular．
