Ladders!!
I bought a ladder today - a proper one to get onto the roof of the house so that I can remove some bits of tree that seem to be stuck there. Never thought I'd own a Ladder - but there you go, the wonders of owning a house in this country.

I never had call to rent one of these for a spot of gardening until I moved to Canada.......

Re: Ladders!!
Congratulations, you’ll be getting a wheelbarrow next. I actually consider myself as somewhat an expert when it comes to ladders as I once owned over 150 of the damn things. From little 16’ jobbies with extendable feet up to big 40’ ones that took a couple of people to move around safely. You might need a pair of ladder mitts if you’re going to be resting it against the siding.

Re: Ladders!!
I was just wondering, yesterday, having so far managed to push the thought from my mind every time it occurred .....
How the devil are we going to change a lightbulb in our "chandelier" which hangs at a great height from our vaulted ceiling.:unsure: We do have a ladder, but there is nothing nearby to lean it against .... hmmmmm ..... oh well, cross that bridge when we come to it ..... <goes back to changing the subject> |
Re: Ladders!!
Rent a big step ladder.

I already own a wheelbarrow. It came free with the house along with other garden tools, a decent enough step ladder and at least 10 axes.
