So now we all wonder what was wrong with his 'organ'

He kept playing with it and it fell off. He
was warned about that, but wouldn’t listen...

Adam has the same problem.

Need to repaint the outside of the house, the old masonary paint is

I'm thinking that a compressed air driven needle gun is the way to go
but not sure how vicious (or not) such a device is. The substrate is
stone and the pointing may well need looking at and chasing out in
places before repainting.

So is the needle gun a good idea or is there something better out
there?

Hi Dave,
Don't know if you'll pick this up. This is spooky. With a name like that
you could be same Dave Liquorice who came to fix my organ in Devon in
2014? If you are, Hi.
Anyway, I hope you succeeded with your masonry paint! Just for the
record, I had a similar problem and used an electric needle gun I hired
from Speedy tool hire. It worked well, but was slow and hard work.

Cheers
John
