I drove past this house a few days ago and there were four oriental looking people, one on the roof, one on the ladder going to the roof, one stood on the upstairs bedroom window cill and one at floor level.
When I drove past the next day the valley on the roof caught my eye.
The pictures are when it has been raining (normal in Darwen) so the cement has darkened. When it dries out it stands out a hell of a lot more.

Classic
They have made it a lot harder now when the lead valley is finally replaced.
They have also patched a couple more areas, and it does look like they have use their hands

Re: How to fix a lead valley
Looks like they had problems getting the Wok hot enough to spread. Probably too much chicken/cat left in it from the night before to help the lead heat up.there were four oriental looking people, one on the roof, one on the ladder going to the roof, one stood on the upstairs bedroom window cill and one at floor level.
