a fairground life (roofing)

The music event was better than last years episode. No doubt due to the change in layout. All went off without any hitches. We left the ride on site until the next day before we moved to the yard. I did pick up that new footbrake valve and although it was the correct one there had been a mix up with the pricing and it cost a bit more than quoted. A genuine mistake. I have moved the show into Glasgow to do some repair work. The roof is leaking and needs re-covered with ply wood. It was originally done in chipboard which has now turned to mush. It is probably about a weeks work but I'm sure I can spin it out a bit longer. Did do a couple of hours graft today removing most of the chipboard and taking it to the re-cycling depot. Will arrange for materials to be delivered on Monday to carry on with the job.
