A lot of us have homes we spend some time in. Discussions can be about any topic that may be of interest that you can think of... renovations, purchases, expenses, etc, etc
Well as some of you might know we upgraded our van about this time last year to a full height van, we previously owned a little low profile pop top and about 4 years ago decided to rebuild the shed to fit it in as we got sick of it setting in the yard so that took some time as we completly rebuilt the whole shed making it large enough to take a full height Pop Top just incase we ever changed vans, never had any idea of buying a full heigh van as we knew we could not get it past the eaves of the carport. Well things changed as they do:lol: no problems we cut the eaves of the carport was all was good van got past... Now BOSS decides that he dosen't like the idea of the new van setting outside so once again he is rebuilding the shed, not so big a job this time only needs a new front a bigger roller door a couple of beams altered to allow for air con to pass under the roof lined changed etc. etc. here is a few photo' of the progress so far..
PS.. Bruce you can come for that coffee now he has finished cleaning the bricks... and sorry no photo's of the said finger but it is starting to heal..
