Including the basement & loft conversion! Congratulations   :D

i guess thats a attempt at humour or a attempt to put down my good mood by trying to belittle the fact that i am pretty pleased with the job and thought i would share the joy

but just for the record

no basement, at least i dont think is has, i never went inside
no loft conversion either, as its a block of flats

Strap that hernia down if the wind picks up. I was at 50' last week and have to say it wasn't exactly enjoyable. The worst bit is moving from window to window when you lift off the glass - even the S2 flexes a fair bit at those heights.

Ive done sixty foot in 30mph winds, its a little difficult but can be done if you hold the pole at an angle againts the wind.  ;D
