A couple of years ago, i was stripping old wallpaper from the ceiling on the landing, and the ceiling fell down. 
Rather than pay a plasterer to reboard it, i clad it with t&g boards.

The boards have shrunk a little, and i'm getting a lot of dust falling through the gaps.
(I say a lot - enough to notice!).
Yes - I know i should have used a breathable membrane before i put on the boards - a bit late now! (Unless i overclad it again)
So i'm going to fill the gaps with a semi flexible, paintable sealer.
Is "decorators caulk" the stuff to use?
The gaps are not huge.
