Get out of the gutter
X | X | Getting out of the gutter | X | X | | | Switch off that sexy mind of yours, today I borrow the ladder from my neighbour - the reason - when it rains heavily the gutter at the rear overflows and soaks down into the utility room. URGENT action needed me things, but action on a sunny breezeless day!!!
At first I thought it was just cleaning, but the gutter it was sagging, looked like it had carried a great weight, but am sure it was no eagles or the herons that stole the fish from the garden pond.
| | | | | Now I had been banned from using ladders, not because I was spying on the neighbours sunbathing but, cause the last time I did I fell off (the last step I might add) and hurt my back (not serious or anything, just painful when having sex... lol).
| | So up the ladder went I, armed with a bucket and small beach spade... but as luck would have it I noticed that the brackets had come loose.... so down the ladder and back up again, this time armed with a hammer and screwdriver. |
| | | | | As time progressed I realised that to fix the problem I would have to remove the gutter completely, water, muck and moss and everything.... and, of course, with windows in the way and my in the shower, it was necessary for me to be showered with the entire gutter contents- there was no other way.
Gutter down and cleaned, then the examination - the cowboys that had put up the gutters had used plasterboard nails... so the fix was simple, remove the brackets and replace the nails with screws, put back up the gutters - job done, now waiting for the rain...lol!
| | | | | I just hate to see it when "professionals" fail to do a job properly - it sucks. | | |

LOL... think you need a little list too and I'll be right over once the bruising heals...lol!
It is handy being able to do stuff around the house, you get to do it your way... but be warned of the old Chinese proverb.. "House not finished til man dies..."... meaning that the handyman is never finished.
