  1. Looks like he's repairing the roof!? Hope he doesn't tumble off and hurt himself! Pretty blue sky, though.

  4. It does look hot there! Great sky and a daring and/or foolish man on the roof. Hope he gets it taken care of -- whatever it is! Have a lovely weekend, Jo!

  5. I agree, not very safe. But I guess somebody has to repair that roof!

  6. Hi Everyone, thanks for the comments. As I walked through an alleyway in the Arabian market in Khartoum last week, I was stopped by a pile of cardboard falling directly in front of me. I looked up and there was this guy throughing cardboard and sacking off the roof - obviously to use when he came down. In the mining/construction life that we had before, health and safety was a big factor. Obviously it' not in this case! I liked the image of the silhouette against the sunny blue sky.

  7. Yikes! There's all kinds of stuff on that roof, not to mention that the roof looks quite uneven! I guess they're used to working in such conditions!

  11. That looks like a Very scary roof to be on. But I guess if one has to do repairs there isn't a lot of choice.

  12. A man sees what needs to be done, then does it!
    Sometimes there is no safe way to get a job done... or is there?

  13. It is a good thing that whatever he was throwing didn't hit you! Have a great day! :)
