Interesting to note that that listing shows it as 'near Radlett' when in fact it's pretty much in the middle of Radlett!! I have edited the picture to stop it rotating when you zoom in!! :-D

Been repairing a blown down fence and rebuilding a rotten deck at son's house.
Some photo's disappeared, possibly not recorded due to lighting conditions, couldn't see the phone screen.
Daughter arrived and pretty much took over. She would clean the gutters and clean the crap out of them, hasn't been done for five years. She was scared to go up the ladder, son went three rungs up and thought better of it and neither of them would let me go up - my ladder - until their backs were turned.

That's an excellent job and a big coincidence - I had exactly the same job on Wednesday except we had to actually drop the gutter down an inch at the downpipe end to improve the drop as it had been pooling. As a result we actually took the gutter down and cleaned it properly before refitting it to the repositioned brackets. No pictures of the work but here's a couple of the finished job: :-D

Surprising how many gutters are installed with the pitch away from the donwncomer.

Walking home in the miserable dribbling rain I spotted this, it did put a smile on my face

there's something about seeing a classic that just makes things seem/feel better.

We in Paggers are flooded again after a whole day and night of rain yesterday...

The river has burst its banks and I found the water level along this footpath much higher than I've ever seen it whilst out for my run this morning...

Not even at the height of winter have I seen it this badly inundated!
