UP ON THE ROOF

I went to the tool shed that i have in the side garden and i happen to see  a cowl and pipe that had obviously come off in the high winds we have been having it had come off the outlet on the roof of our van from the kitchen air vent .
I took the ladder and extended it has far as it would go and cable tied the rungs of each part together so it was extra safe .
Helen footing the ladder i manage to get on the roof which was  really solid i was able to  fit the pipe part back on to the opening inlet and drill and screw it back into position using my cordless drill and screws seeing has it had no screws fixing it originally and it now has three brass crews it should not blow off again fingers crossed .At least i know now that the roof will hold my weight no problem .

I am looking forward to Christmas putting the tree up and decking out the van with lights both inside and out this hopefully will be a great festive period .We will order our turkey crown when i get paid and get some other food stuff we will need cranberry sauce and the like some things we will get nearer the time .


Whats bugging me is might have to work Christmas day it will be a grind i don't want Helen to be on her own for even a part of Christmas day all the managers assistant managers  get it off each year which is so unfair .
I had my first mince pie today it was only a cheap on but it was not that bad .
