That's the correct way to lay on felt francie and that like someone used to say is a FACT mate... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Theres always two ways to skin a cat fireman,if thats the way you were taught happydays,tho i was taught to keep her tight,naturally in the middle of the rafters if water gathers it will runn under the baton an down an away 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
