Page 2 of Good Summer so far

Well the wife and I fly out to Australia this Wednesday for two weeks, and I am ready to install the new carport on my house which has been lying disassembled in the back garden since last year. But it will not be about work this time as it should be assembled over two days, (my oldest son who lives next door with his family will help me) and the rest of the time should be a well deserved holiday 

Here is the very carport I ordered (picture by manufacturer), which is needed to prevent the car interior from baking in the sun.

Funny to think that in less than a year from now, I will be leaving the UK for good to retire in Oz.

Just think all that spare time to concentrate on the Illuminati and con trails. 

I hope you'll still be on here. I think we'd all miss the banter.

Not to mention the "I told you so!"'s when the illuminati stuff all turns out to be true!

Do you think they'll let you back in permanently Bandi? Or is it just a matter of sliding some tinnies to the people at the airport?

He he, I could giver you a lecture on city building regulations and stipulations on car ports and garages, though i may be in danger of boring you  

We are no longer allowed to use corrigated iron on the roofs as it is an old Australian thing (there words), where we use the stuff everywhere, as it takes the heat, will not rot or be eaten by insects, but looks awful as it rusts.

Also the upright wood supports have to be metal, as wood again can rot and be eaten by insects. We tend to use rolled and shaped metal sheeting now as roofing. it also has to be strong against any severe weather, so cantilevered off the wall is not allowed, and so must have supports at all corners (as photo).

Are you still actually reading this (Yawn)

Still reading, don't worry.

Didn't realise it was a wall-less garage. I thought it was an airport for cars.
