So with the roof on, despite not being securely screwed down, one of my other small needs was to address this hole.

So I went to see Stuart, Mickeys neighbour whose I knew had a pile of conservatory roofing laying out behind his place for the last three years.

Offered to buy, trade, swap him a sheet.....

Nope he said, take one, I will probably never use them.

So I dug one out of the overgrown pile.

Carried it home, broom, hosepipe and 7 minutes later.

Mickey to the rescue.

Channel

So it looks like the 2400mm by 780mm sized hole will get closed in too, keeping more weather out.

This morning I saw the car frosted over completely

It was chilly, later the day settled around 7’C which is mamangeable

Usually @PaulY does not show up before it drops below 6’C

After breakfast and a lazy start I ran down to Tool station and got two tubes of silcon based mastic for the wall seal.

As well as a roll of self adhesive flashing.

Back home by lunchtime to get back onto the roof.
