A gust of wind picked up the 2 detached houses opposite and slammed them down on top of your van, crushing it into oblivion.  




The only thing that survived was your 5 cones and Mat.

If had his cones and mat out the houses would have missed his van.

The mat is in the van. As I am on a private drive and I know the home owner is out there is no need for a mat. (I may have some interesting news on the mat front next week.)

As for the use of ladders in strong wind, I used the pointer to reach the gate lock.

I assessed that the work being done was safe.

It's not a pavement it's just how the drive has been tarmaced. There is grass one side and a pebbled pull in on the other side.  ;D

Your ladder slides off the roof, down your windscreen, over your bonnet, onto the road.

Ditto, taking out a pedestrian, cyclist and car at the same time.

 ;D

I clean windows to fit in with all my hobbies.  ;D

I am in fact putting photo's together as an in house 'best practice' training system.

I may be having a chap help me out with a few jobs and want to document best practice with a series of 'What is good/bad about this situation'

.....just as Iain Duncan Smith goes past, the ladder trips him up and he goes flying face first into your safety mat, and gets a cone lodged into each orifice.
