The problem is solved

The roof needed repairing. The old felting had rotted and water ran down the wall when it rained, see the bight blue plastic. Nicks team added a black stiff pvc deflector, so that anymore rain will run into the guttering. I ventured up the ladder to have a look.
I packed for travelling south on my own tomorrow. I haven’t seen either of my daughters since Christmas. Toms very busy electioneering.
