Will pull the garage door down before I hit the sack, got some loose HardySheets on my south wall that I've not gotten around to renailing and liquid nailing to the frame , and don't want to loose them in breeze.
They even said to expect snow in the Blue Mountains and Barrington Tops ---- it's near the end of November and they forecast snow !!!
Weather is really crazy lately .,... (last few years)....
