Scaffold towers are so last year, get yourself a MEWP

BM would love one though  lol:   Has he got a birthday coming up?  No, I didn't think so  ;)

You tease Pastis when BM sees that in the morning he will be wetting himself....Come to think of it these days  he does that anyway. noooo:
I have always thought that the worst thing about drowning was having to call 'help!' You must look such a fool. It's put me against drowning.

Why doesn't he just abseil down the building with his paintpod in hand ?  whistle:


Not practical Miss D ....... Abseiling down the building whilst holding a paintpod is strictly a one way trip ... then he has to climb up again to abseil down to do the next strip of painting. Now if he were to bungy jump from the roof, paintpod at the ready, he could get several strips painted as he bounced up and down before he needed to climb back to the roof. Takes a man to think through the practicalities you see. ;D

That's all right then ..... I like lists of "Jobs that must be done" ..... You can pick your task of the day/week/month/year to suit your mood and then there is always the "I'm actually planning the task and seeing what I need to order ~ No point in going off half-cocked" option followed, after a suitable delay (about a month), by the "I am actually sorting the priorities as we you speak" which should always precede the "Please make up your bloody mind, I can't do it all at once you know" throwaway remark as you head for the pub.
