        Excellent cheers. Just used it. Like toffee. No thanks, well done from Mrs MF of course, no just a moan that you could see the stuff from the road. FFS!

          Just remember this is a temporary fix, you really need to get this resolved permanently, how old is the house as an initial guess would be that the DPC (damp proof course) or cavity tray has failed.
          If you leave this be then the water will get into the cavity & rot any insulation you may have & get on to the inner skin & then into the house & low & behold its rotten plasterboard, skirting’s etc.

          Growing up is optional

              Surely, just get some round to do it for you ? Saves a lot of hassle, mess and won't cost the earth to do.

                I did do. I had it booked. As with what seems all workmen, he didn't show up. As it's a temp solution only I thought I'd do it. I mean what could go wrong? It's not as if I've got an Emu.

                    Sounds like you could do with some rubber sheets. Didn't you get a jumbo pack when your rep was taken away?

                      People who live in S&M dungeons shouldn't throw rubber dildos.
