Another lighthearted thread bites the dust.

or that mortar joint has given up in the past and been repaired, the mortar looks like it's been coated too.

I would think the neighbour has had a re-roof in the not too distant past and had the gutters replaced too. That slate roof looks in very good condition to me, or at least the slate do. Unfortunately the muppets that put the tiles on have done a bad job of bonding the two roofs. To swap a...

Which will be the result of a previous leak/repair caused by that horrendous cement joint...the slate looks in very good condition and pretty well bonded/straight, dontcha think? What a pity they decided to tile that roof.

A Muslim guy in leeds was prosecuted for having sex with a young sheep........he pleaded 'not guilty' and claimed he could do what he liked cos it was Islam. :lol:

Typical Manc :lol:

It's a lead roof that has not visible signs of an internal drain/pipe so the water has to run somewhere and that is over the edge. Is there a small pipe running out of the fascia above the window? If so this may be blocked, forcing the water to run over. The noise is probably more...
