Water, water everywhere

Drop in and dribble on about nothing serious. Seriously a mad place to hang out. Better to avoid it if you're not in the mood!!! If you're determined to be sad, bad, mad & angry then move along!!!

Water, water everywhere

Post by RussellB[SA] »

Especially in the cupboards, after last rains found the upper cupboards at the rear full of wet towels. Special word comes to mind ...... Starts with "F", yes that's right

"Flipping" heck

We're on the road next week...

Out with the tube of silicon and another check tomorrow.

AAAAAAAAAAAAARGH

Can't find anything obvious so spread the silicon everywhere on the roof joints.

Rather than using silicone, which shrinks away after a time, better to use a polyurethane sealant.
