So this is the scene of the crime! The sorry-looking loft ladder which fell apart with me on it [I'm recovering well thanks, been to work today]!
Good job there's nothing we need from the attic now because a handyman has today taken it down and screwed the hatch shut until we get it repaired or replaced by a joiner.
Its full to the rafters with our stuff. We had the floor strengthened 20 years ago so it should hold.
Just hope we haven't locked anyone up there ... besides Action Man that is, but he's a survivor I reckon!
What's in your attic readers?
That does not look very safe, and right next to the stairs. Is it really only holding by the two pieces of cord visible in the photo ? Really glad you are recovering. Take care.
ReplyDeleteThose are metal straps holding it up. Our handyman has sawn through them and the whole things has been removed now Paul thanks.
DeleteOurs is similar, packed with boxes full of things we've collected or simply store. Wishing you a speedy recovery, Woodsy!
ReplyDeleteThanks Tone. I don't know what we'd do without our attic!
DeleteOmg,take care my friend!
ReplyDeleteThanks EW!
DeleteIn any case when you are ok ready for mosh and pogo:)
ReplyDeleteha ha, and air guitaring EW!
DeleteI always thought it was a bit rickety, but assumed it was because of my weight!
ReplyDeleteIt was 20 years old Wote and had an excellent altitude!
DeleteOuch that sounded painful! Hope youe better Woodsy! As for attics - like basements - they're few and far between in this neck of the cactus.
