A blanket or something would probably do

Thanks Nictrix that’s actually a good idea, I was thinking of building a small partition, but hanging something from the ceiling will be easier to do and remove when not required
I used to have something similar in my garage to keep the bike behind and was basically an old duvet cover attached to a curtain pole that could be opened and closed like curtains.

nothing you can do will guarantee that nothing will happen other than building a wall and making the garage in to two singles !

Love my "kids" and grandchildren but if I was in your position I would not have a pool table next to my P &J - it's an accident waiting to happen :(

We have a fairly large garden and when my kids were teenagers I cleared out the garden chalet and put a 6'x4' pool table in it :D then had to put a another garden shed further down the garden to house all the stuff I originally had in the chalet :cry:
