    used to have to go up n down really big ladders quite a lot.. damned hard work they were too. forgot how high but abot 85 ft was possible. much preferred to use the basket on roof when it worked, bar getting into it, which could cause cloth touching on a breezy day

    Wow - was that on a crane?

    Not sure why, but tonight I woke up just after 4am, and haven't been able to get back to sleep. Seems quiet round here there days/nights.
