My roof work is dragging on because of the rain. So far there have been no leaks during the process except for yesterday when after fitting the new velux windows, they didn't fit the tiles above the flashing kit on the big one so some water came in around the side. Easy fix and dry as a bone after today's wettening. It's been handy having shit windows as I've been able to mostly speak to the roofers through my closed office window while they go up and down the ladder to the scaffold. There's an awkward shaped apex roof over the front bay that they've done a cracking job on. Took an extra day as it wasn't actually symmetrical to begin with so they built a whole new frame for the tiles so it would be even. Also, they're doing a dry ridge instead of a wet ridge with out charging more (makes up for the extra work they "found" on day one).
Everest survey for the new windows going ahead tomorrow in an apparently covid secure way, whatever that means. Balls, as I type this I've remembered a whole load of shit in the back bedroom that I'll have to shift out of the way first thing.
