Highbridge and Dartmouth

[Paul Townsend]

Life can be a pain.

I experienced a paper tsunami last Tuesday. Shelving erected some 9 years ago using top of range aluminium system announced rather spectacularly that it was overloaded and threw in the towel.

I jumped away and was unhurt and observe that the only permanent damage is to a lot of cardboard magazine holders and my dignity.

I am now replacing it with proper steel Spur system but am slow because I need help with holding an SDS drill at top of step ladder.

Then to reinstate the paper load.

No modelling for two weeks as I must clear the dining room which is out of normal use being piled up with stray paper……..

Today I am entertained by chaps fitting a new garage door to replace the one vandalised in early May.

The shelf fitting has progressed somewhat, 2 verticals fully screwed to wall, 3rd has 3 of 4 fixings done, 4th awaits hefting heavy SDS drill to the top. No fun in 80% humidity and 33.5 degrees......H&S nightmare!
The fitting of the 4th and final upright requires drilling more holes in a position temporarily inaccessible until garage door fitting is finished.
