Of course not…
I've been being nice. I expect the same. Please don't ever call me a troll.

I’ve never called you a troll…I know you’ve been nice…I think you are being sensitive…

TITs are reserved for a certain limited number of folks…you are not on that list..

They will get it down the road for another 10 miles before some other part fails :roll: Watching this thread ...
 
Flat pack kit from Eastern Europe goes up quick, result from one short day..quality good overall, few niggles as they go from felled trees to machined wood very fast, so a few splits and warps..

Day 3 of the erection…effectively bar some small finishing we are now watertight and ready for sparkies…

Composite roof on, doors on, windows glazed…

A few twists and turns as a result of taking a standard kit and then adapting it..but very pleased in the outcome…

Glad to see you gradually dropping down to my level of humour :thumbsup: :D
He left the door wide open and I can’t help but jump through, I was also thinking that there’s so much wood in the picture

Sorry looks great, the new garage that is :thumbsup:

I realised that the double entendre would inevitably create a degree of interest amongst what would be otherwise a fairly flaccid subject… :tumbleweed: :rofl:

After 5 years of waiting / struggling without such simple pleasures forgive the excitement…looking forward to a winter of rubbing myself up and down on my Yellow Peril in warm and dry and well lit conditions… :thumbsup:
