My near neighbour who recently had the solar panels installed is building an impressive shed. :)

That's quite some shed Eric :D Can it be used as a garage for a car?

I don't think there's any vehicle access to it Jim.
I think it has to be something like this:

I told my daughter about it, she said "Maybe he's going to let it out as an 'Air B&B' ." :)

That company is fairly local to me... Looks quite a place and an ideal Air BnB!

Shame it has no vehicle access though...

Down by the 'beach'* in Bury Field early this morning 😃 It looks quite stunning in the mist and with hoar frost on the grass 😎

* It's not really a beach, just a sand-bar below the riverbank. As close as we can get to a beach, being almost as far from the sea as it's possible to be in England!

Sort of a "had a load of it" and a load of time on my hands before it'd seem the obvious solution to me!

As for the price, think I'd put similar money on a set of these:

Sorry to drag us back to these ramps again, but a hilarious Photoshop job has made me chuckle:

I'm not well up on American pickup trucks so half guessed "ford f150 wheelbase" Google search term says "122.8 inches" equals an equally "not tripping off the tongue" 3119.12mm !
By Eck those ramps must be huge! :rofl2:

I spent a most enjoyable half hour speaking to the old lady who planted them - they're opposite her house - over 20 years ago and in doing so learned a lot of village history and gossip :)

No picture as I was driving , Morrisons lorry 6 inches behind man on bike.
It was a double look at that moment I was in total disbelief.
Husky. :? Thinking outside of the box is better than sitting in a dark one.

My late friends house, came onto the market today, I reckon it's cheap, if it were nearer London I'd bet over a million.

That's a lovely place Eric and I spot a very tasty radiogram in one of the reception rooms :cool:

It seems to lack very much in the way of garages and workshops so I'm out I'm afraid... Any house needs to have a long driveway and a triple garage as a minimum before it starts to have any appeal to me these days ;)
