Cleaning out the gutters has been my job of the day. They have not been done properly for thirty odd years.
Tomorrow a seven metre roof ladder is to be delivered. This will enable me to fix a bird cowl to the chimney pot, before the Jackdaws begin nesting.

Well, first visit of the year to a garden centre with the missus, I got off lightly with only £30 or so spent on soil and potted plants. Still keeps her happy.
I paid for our gutters cleaning last year as it happens, like you Steve around 35 yr since they were done, cost was £65, not worth me taking a chance of falling off the ladder for that price.

Hi Dave
It is Mike cleaning his guttering, i do mine twice a year from off some steps as we are in a bungalow, did a few jobs round the garden yesterday and finished the shed, gave one of the garden boxes away, the other went to the tip along with some other rubbish.

Just the slabs to jet wash and the front drive and then I'm happy to say I'm in front of myself for a bit, next will be sorting out jobs inside the home.

My gutters are done at least twice a year, but we do have an enormous sycamore tree which produces copious amounts of leaves.

Similarly, we are also in a bungalow, so not too much danger.

Cleaned all the front drive Friday wet it even though is was spitting fine rain, covered it in Bio washing powder, left it for about 3 hours then brushed and washed it all off helps kill the green algae, yesterday gave it another wash off and all is good, may paint it this year with water proof paint ?

Walk around the lake planned for us today, couple of miles, all sounds very healthy until we get to the end. This is where we end up.
