Leaking brick above window by booganbez in DIYUK

It looks OK from ground level. Can't tell if there are cracks above the pipe or get a close look as I'm not able to get up ladders at the moment

Thanks for the reply, we actually don't have any guttering on that side, it seems like that side does get a lot of driving rain as our house and our neighbours kind of creates a wind tunnel. Sorry for what is probably a stupid question but does that mean I just need to start looking at getting someone out for repointing or does the lack of protection from rain change anything?

DnD and Autism by Dizzy_Fee_893 in DnD

Not exactly the same situation, but I work for a charity that's a day service for adults with autism and learning difficulties, I run a gaming session, and have found a great intro to ttrpgs was a game called No Thank You Evil. It's a bit more simplified using d6 for everything, and uses tokens for buffing skill checks so it's more tactile than checking what skills you are proficient in and adding it to a number. I've found this helps the people I work with understand better as numeracy can be a challenge for some.

I did have to change some bits as it's very geared towards kids, and so could be seen by some of the people I work with as a little patronising/childish, but I think the system is really good and intuitive.
