Monday and all that.

So yesterday I spent a good part of the morning up on the garage roof, stripping off metal strip tiling that has, over time, slipped. This has caused the wooden battens underneath to rot, causing the tiles to slip furthur..etc,etc. Nowt wrong with the original corrugated roof underneath other than nail holes and suspect timbering from the leaks let in by the strip tiles above... Such are the trails of buying a big old fixer-upper. The holes can wait till next week, my back started protesting so the idea of crawling around the roof patching them dulled somewhat, we get no rain this time of year anyway (normally!). The pic, why the sun streaming through the holes...

Of course, a morning up on the roof, shirt off, cool winter breeze, sees me feeling more than a little rough this morning...*sniffle*
