A friend of mine once told me about his grandad who used to paint the outside window frames on his house by putting a board under his bed & out of the window.This worked well for a few goes,until one day the sash window slid down & he couldnt open it.The local kids on their way home from school stood & laughed at him & chucked a few stones up...

Dont know if its true,but made me laugh when I heard it.

There used to be a reccomendation years ago that scaffolds should be erected I think it was 750mm past the building that was to be worked on. Is that still in place?

 

[scaffy]

Not in this case !!
