Given up on that now (I also live in a bungalow). Been up on the roof many times during the last 30 odd years but over the years got less agile and so, became more aware of the danger. I remember one of our clients, a roofing contractor, saying he didn't want to be climbing roofs in his late 50s - that was for the younger guys. A neighbour power washed his roof. Flooded the house. Wrong angle.  #-o

p.s. Get well soon, Sunray.
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Everything I've heard regarding power washers and roof tiles has ended in tears.

The 'Little Old Guy' has been up on our Bungalow roof, scraping off the moss and has got me to buy some drums of tile paint. Think he'll wait for it to get a bit drier, though, before he gets round to that! Think even HE isn't all that happy and he's loony!  :o
Strange to think that in my early teens, I used to JUMP off the flat roof to attempt PLFs ...thinking that I may have had to do it for real when The Cold War kicked off. Oh, to be young and stupid again! LOL!  ;D

Get well soon.
Bet you thought 2021 couldn't be worse than 2020.
Met a roofer once who had fallen off 3 different  times ! !
and he was a professional ?

Hello

It always amazes me that somebody can injure themselves doing exactly what I would have been doing. A listing of my injuries to date are not really necessary at this point of my narrative

Get better soon James, I'm still on the lookout for suitable aircraft for you.  :D.

Cheers

Thanks for all kind words.  Reports of my death have been overexaggerated .

Ooooooh....that's a fib....Just to get me into trouble. :D :P

The personality ? I thought I was supposed to be making Ariel Bender, from Mott the Hoople.....Do you mean I have to cut his bloody guitar off ?

The figure will be 'based' on a certain chap from that time...But no more than that !

Cheers - Phil  ;)

Phil - you are way too modest.  Just give him a gut that reflects his love of Gold Star beer.

Fair enough, Chum. ;)

He'll be a bit more 'portly' than normal.

I'll send you a piccy tomorrow.

Cheers - Phil  :)
