I went to Stoke Mandeville today..

Don't worry about paint Neil, I took 150 litres down with me not so long ago

Brushes and rollers will come in handy though.

Hi Steve,

Good Lord - did you say 150 litres?????

I'll do rollers (long and short) and a mixture of brushes.

Neil

[Steve Valentine]

Yes

Emulsion, gloss, under coat, cuprinol

Hi Neil,

Brushes and rollers are there at the ranges, but there are more brushes than rollers, so I'd bring them instead, mate.

Paint? We're drowning in the stuff!!

[snock]

count me in too, have we copper ready??

There are a few lengths of 15mm there, but we will need more.
I'll be putting an order in for more ply sheets etc, so we can add anything to the order that none of us can spare.

Pete.

[nbrooks]

Rollers it shall be.

How many do you want?

Neil

Neil

Realistically about 3 or 4, mate. There are some there, so we don't need many.

[Vanpyre]

i have a few conies on board but have no copper pipe, if someone can bring some that will be great, what else we thinking of doing in the more major work?

[snock]

How many lengths of 15mm pipe will we need?
I reckon 1 pack will be plenty. We'll have to source our own fittings, as I couldn't possibly know what we need in advance.

We could always get them on the day.

Pete.

I am going to order 20 8x4' sheets of 6mm ply and 6 cans of expanding foam today or tomorrow.

I have no idea about plumbing, so I'll just go on the roof and fix the leaks mate Not bad at the amatuer joinery though

Only if the snow's cleared, bud.
Nobody's going up there is it's covered.

You amateur, you!

Good idea, copper tube ain't cheap, better to just buy what we need.

Any idea where the roof is leaking from Pete?

Walking on that roof is going to require crawl boards so as not to damage the foam sealing.

Not sure if we should filler foam where the roof meets the new fascias as well, Rosie said she could see daylight from inside.

Steve

P.s. make sure you don't buy harboard sheets, keep the ply flat!!!!(remember last time?) AND BUY SHARP SCREWS

I'm in doubt for the weekend. I sneezed yesterday and I tore muscles in my ribs, struggling to walk let alone do anything else at the moment. I'll check back in later in the week

So be warned sneezing is bad for you and it is embarrassing as hell !!!
