friend of mine slipped on some decking in march, broke her wrist and mangles the ligament , been signed off till November at the earliest, wfp is dangerous.

I think wet welsh slate has to be the worse type of finish to any ground for ladder safety, I used the laddatec stabalisers and even they wouldn't stop the ladder from slipping.

Hi all
the other week i was pulling off my hose an the old girl next door to where i was working was reversing her car out of her drive,
so i turn round to have a look and started to walk backwards still pulling my hose only to walk straight into the bird bath 
I sat down in it first before falling over the thing, well the result was one wet ass looked like i had $**sed my self only had that one job to do and getting back into the van wasn't at all nice
still could have been worse didn't hurt myself or damage the thing

Did you slip and slide? Or just slip?

[lee_dewing]

sorry to hear that mike.

it's amazing how easy it is to have slip fall etc.

i bent down to move my back pack, right near one of those bl00dy mother inlaw tongue plants is it?

sharp point leaves;    anyway just missed my eye

left a nice dig on face.

more haste less speed.

well take this as a lesson and next time use your van roof like others would

some folk would slate you for doing it that way....not me, i would do it that way all day and have someone in the van driving me all over the run doing it that way.

Well given the number of window cleaners who take photos of Joe Public cleaning windows, and then post them here, it would only be fair really

you should charge extra for dangerous jobs
