Bravery at work award

[Littlepeahead]

I think I deserve one today. I'm scared of heights but we are having the media centre sanded and painted and they wanted photos. So I reluctantly had to go 30m up to the very top via the scaffolding ladders to get the pictures. Any friends who think I have a boring desk job get ready to stand corrected.

And before any of you say it - I know how sexy I look in that hard hat and high viz, really!

You have a boring desk job, but a cool place to have it ;)

Some people have all the fun.

I would love to work at Lord's. I'd clean out the drains just for the priviledge of being that close to the square.

But your job is still boring - jealous, no not at all... much.

That's a helluva lot of scaffolding!

Anyone else imagining that scaffolding in the last picture to start slipping away to the side?

I needed new pants by half way up. I tried to get over my fear of heights by jumping out of perfectly good aeroplanes. But knackered my back landing in a WWII slit trench one day.
