Its been a tricky few days the end wall is covered in a cement render that in places is 40+mm thick! Behind it the lime mortar is very damp and soft. Using the rotary hammer drill is hard work and my arms are aching but it has to come off so just got to keep going. Aparently the awning on the caravan nearly took off last weekend so I have purchased a few items to help, massive tent pegs and a storm brace kit. Hope they will keep it all safe and secure. The roofers turned up today to secure any loose slates and replace the missing ones that had come off due to high winds and nail rot, roofer speak for rusty nails! Unfortunately they managed to knock over a ridge fin, luckily it stayed in one piece and didn't slip down the roof. They managed to get up and reseat it using the same ladder that caused it to come off! So only keeping to low level repairs today they will return next week with different ladders to complete the job.
