Roadkill



Picked it up this morning from Royal mail and just unpacked it.



I felt like a kiddie at christmas - it looks fantastic and has survived its travels apparently unscathed.



It's put a smile back on my face.

How long . . . .


. . . is a piece of string ?



Dunno, Mate.

I've got the stuff, now, that's a start.

The front end won't get touched this year, that's for sure.

I'm gonna start spraying the axle next week, then try to get that refitted in September . . .

Interior's gotta come out first, though.

It's currently housing :

The new (unfitted) toilet and cistern, the new (unfitted) corner bath and panel, the new (unfitted) basin and pedestal, plus two lots of taps and fittings.
Also Nibbler and his humungous cage, a huge bail of hay, an even bigger (horse-size) bail of wood-chip, aswell as Sammy's fold out table, Nibblers cleaning stuff, his food stuffs and currently a Dog bed containing my Mums Terrier, Tasha.

PLUS very soon I'll have to house 16 (2x1 metre) sheets of 6mm Alluminium which I'm buying from my company before my departure on Friday.

Hehehehe.

No, when my garage is extended for the second time it'll be about 39' long internally . . . . by about 8' wide.

= 11.9m x 2.45m = 6 sheets x 2.5 sheets = 15.

I'll not only have the blingest garage floor, It'll also be worth over £1,000.

BTW, the spare sheet will either be sold or be kept to make a ramp for a 2-wheeled addition at a later date.

Either screw it to timber batons or rivet it to steel top-hat sections.

It is (5-bar) Checker plate.
