I hope it\u2019ll keep the boards safe over tonight. Then tomorrow I can collect some better thicker stuff from Screwfix in Peterborough &#8211; which I bought at the March Screwfix (but too late to collect from their Peterborough branch, where they had stock) &#8211; and attach it properly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"771\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sebpalmer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/img20221113145611-771x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6918\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.sebpalmer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/img20221113145611-771x1024.jpg 771w, http:\/\/www.sebpalmer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/img20221113145611-226x300.jpg 226w, http:\/\/www.sebpalmer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/img20221113145611-768x1020.jpg 768w, http:\/\/www.sebpalmer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/img20221113145611-1157x1536.jpg 1157w, http:\/\/www.sebpalmer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/img20221113145611-1542x2048.jpg 1542w, http:\/\/www.sebpalmer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/img20221113145611-scaled.jpg 1928w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Striking a pose with my \u2018Samurai\u2019 saw!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Then there\u2019ll be a layer of roofing felt.
