I am supposed to be getting a new roof put on this weekend, as this one has leaked for ten years and now has bloody pigeons living in it. The roofers should be here by now, and they are not. Probably because it's pissing down, and the forecast says it will continue to do so for approximately the next twelve years.

I know it's your fault. Everything else is.

Do something, or I'm off to netmums.

If you don't like the roof you should just hide it.

There's no need to start yet another thread about a leaky roof!

Hi LeB0F,

Thank you for starting this thread.

We will try our best to have a look at the weather and get it sorted for you asap. However, Tech is rather busy at the moment.

We are sorry to hear about the pigeons in your loft and we do hope that it isn't a euphemism.

Best wishes
MNHQ

Yes sorry, we're working on a fix - Tech banging away in the shed and the comms team are trying to get a response from God, as we speak. Please bear with us we are listening and we do really care about your roof, and the weather, honest. Apols again.

Leave the bastard

We're going to an airshow this weekend, I think that takes priority over your pigeons. I demand politely request Tech sort out the weather over Yeovil before doing anything else. The roof will still leak next weekend, but the stupid terrribly exciting show is ONLY this weekend.

TIA

Well, I'm glad to see this is being taken seriously.

I have a fabulous roof

TheFallenMadonna · 22/06/2012 09:44

My roof would never leak because I know how to manage its behaviour.

SillyBeardyDaddyman · 22/06/2012 09:45

Can you check and see if the [raspberry] face is in your roof?

I don't want it to fly away and get lost...

Think of all that pigeon pie you could be making.

ShirleyKnot · 22/06/2012 09:51

Not this again? Hmm

ginslinger · 22/06/2012 09:52

Yes you are being unreasonable and some people don't even have a roof. Or pigeons.

Sorry LeBOF, it sounds like every single roofer/builder/noisy workman in the whole world is currently outside my kitchen window making an almighty racket but not actually doing very much except scratching their arses

Doesn't look good for your roof...
