Guys just remember these days during the rest of the year...put money by so you are not forcd to put yourself in situations that may affect your safety.

Have just been through all my next years work and have planned to gain a certain amount of work that is soley there just to provide 'slush' money for unworkable days.

Be safe.

trad stuff will be used today without question, but also planning a little wfp if it carries on warming up.

By the way you should never rely on one method to make you money, hence why we do both  :P

I've been using a ladder mat since the weather turned cold. I think if anyone gets complacent though they could be in trouble. I've got a gutter clean tomorow but it won't be getting done unless I'm totaly happy that I've minimised any risk of slipping.
