Are they solar panels on the roof? if so complain to the company that fitted them. The house across the road was having them fitted and one of the fitters was stomping around all over the roof, it,s a wonder they have any whole tiles left. ;D
That's another one of the reasons they break...firkin great boots stomping all over them. It should be fine till Thursday.

My staff blue tiles have been up since 1890 and there still up there  ;D
(apart from the ones I removed to fit velux windows )
snotted on the back of the lathe with weak lime mortar ,no nails and it's on the top of a hill (for when the global warming melts the ice caps) :P
windy here in winter

Off topic, why is there what looks like an expansion joint in the brickwork in line with the dish? Dave will know I'm sure. ::)

I think he means the bit that looks like an extension, tied in.

Goes all the way down, rubber sealant there. Bricks cut in half as well, no idea why, all part of original house.

Extension taking place around the back.

It is odd  :-\ Our house was built on the end of an existing terrace (because there was nowhere for the station master of the newly built station to live in 1926) and has a similar line between us and next door.

Have you got a garden rake Tunnie, and if so could you drag it back with it?  ???
