retired windy near me left his equipment and ladders in someone's back yard, travelled 10 miles here and back home on the bus for 25 yrs, kept him in work  3 holidays a year always happy and jolly simples. dont judge people on appearance.

trad for 24 years  ;D started on the bottoms with 2 milk crates tied together , one pocket a wet scrim and a dry scrim . a 2 pence piece for scraping the bird muck off . £7 a morning . them were the days.  ;) put on the tops after 6 months no spikes on the ladders , broom handles cut down for the missing rungs . i bet thats bringing back memories for a few on here.   last weeks memories for quite a few as well ;D ;D
