I need to fix some wooden slats on to my shed roof to make sure it doesnt blow off in a gale. Must I use `fekt nails` or can I use screws (thinking leaks)

Depends on many factors. No-one can say without more detail.
I wouldn't use nails if they're fekt.
Cheers
screws are better

Are they the ones with the heads on the wrong end?
No, they are the left handed ones.
Run a bead of mastic under the batten and use screws.
Thanks, wasnt sure if there was a particular reason for the felt (That would be fekt :-) ) nails in terms of sealing the felt.
