the roof tile of Damocles

Storm Eunice had very strong winds at home yesterday.  Today, surveying the results, we saw some displaced roof tiles.


First we noticed all the tiles that were displaced.  They’ll need fixing.  Then we noticed the gutter – with the roof tile lodged in it, flapping up and down in the still strong wind.  

If that falls, it will drop onto the new conservatory’s glass roof:


The hanging tile is in absolutely the most difficult position to get at – in the very middle back of the conservatory.  The roof tiler will need scaffolding to access that bit of the roof.

Oh well.  Fingers crossed it doesn’t fall.
