Outside today on the flat roof up a ladder, my worst fear faced.  Never been a great fan of ladders or heights but it had to be done. The outside of the B&B at the front needed to be repainted in country cream (the same as it was before) so I just had to get on with it, the sun was out so things were not that bad. So with a great sense of relief after finishing I decided to repaint the hand rails up the front steps as well. So sorry but no pictures of me up the ladder painting or looking petrified perhaps next year.
