I cant stand the rain

Postby gigksrc » Sun Nov 22, 2009 1:22 pm

Not happy :cry:
I have spent most of today standing on a ladder in the bathroom aiming my hairdryer at the wall & ceiling with water running down the wall & down the back of the stupid big expensive mirror that will probably now be fucked from all the water running down behind it. Bits of ceiling plaster were breaking off & falling all over the place. Makes me so mad that one heavy downpour will probably cost me 2 months pay.
I shouldnt have looked at the ceiling in the other rooms because it is seeping in all over the place & doing $$$$$$$ to the paint & plaster
damn damn damn
I cant stand the rain
please .......... stop the rain dance

yes I know ....... fix the roof
I already did :(

Rain has now stopped gig but I reckon there is a chance we will get some more some day, get the roof fixed properly!!! www.servicecentral.com.au might help, get a few plumbers out to look and quote on the job.

We had a gutter split, and now the car port in flooded and all my weights benches are wet - I just hope the pool table stayed dry.

So I went and purchased a water tank to fit onto the gutter, and it stopped raining when I got home.
