10th April: The Doctor and I got up into the loft space to clear out all the junk left by the people who owned this house before we did. (Messy people!!)
B****y H**l! They certainly were messy... I saw your previous post where you noted how much you had cleared from the loft, but I didn't imagine just how horrible it was. I'd have thought it was rather a hazard really - good thing you've cleared it out! Glad to see the "Safety Shot"!!
Some of that looks like builders mess. Did the previous people have a new roof or have water tanks removed? I dread to think what our loft space looks like. The house is 120 years old and we had a new roof 20 years ago. I bet it looks just like that. We never go up there, not being built for balancing on a step-ladder that is on a couple of boards over the bath we just haven't been up there in 30 years!
oh do I know about messy former house owners. And crazy former house owners. and 'just what were they smoking?" former homeowners. I hope the cleanup went smoothly!
...is what I speak. It describes what I actually say (nonsense, mostly) and how I say it (ie my accent, which is a mixture of all sorts - a bit of North of England, a bit of Irish, a bit of South West England, a lot of just me!) The word comes from my name, Mel, and the fact that I'm one-quarter Welsh. But there's not actually any Welsh in my accent. Go figure...

We've used a few of those masks at various stages in our little job - such fun! I bet it looks so much better now though :-)

wow they were really messy! Glad you were safe with your masks... any photos of you wearing one???
You were very brave Mel! I get very queezy at the thought of climbing the ladder to the loft but ours is directly over the stairs - too scary!!! :)
