Ive just got home from a 17hr shift at Laverton railway station here in Vic.
Had 2 50+ tonne cranes to do precast concrete panel lifts but only managed to remove the old pedestrian ramp as it was deemed too dangerous. A house down the road from the work site lost their roof early this morning. The S.E.S had been there most of the night tarping it up. |

No trees down at my place but the corrigated iron roof was trying to lift off my rear verander this morning. Thank god it's just a rental and it's not my problem.
PS. The verander roof isn't part of the main house roof so it wont cause any leaks.if it had actually taken flight like it was trying too.

All the trees that were a little dodgy fell inthe last wind storm a few weeks ago so all is well up here.
Neighbours back fence (we back on to a paddock) has managed to fall over though. Useless clown went out and has left the owners of the paddock to fix it.

I take it this is heading up the coast to Sydney?
I'll have to try and squeeze both of the cars into the Garage.

I've got 135Sqm of tarps on a second floor extension, we just stood the walls up on Friday. The bellowing tarps kept the clients up all night and I put in 2 more hours this morning reinforcing everything so it did'nt all end up landing in the neighbours pool!
