Newkid; You got the photo's arse about face! ? I clicked, seeing a new post? It showed me a place in a state. And you saying, " Fair change outside to this cottage..."

  I thought, " There fukkin Wants to be! "

It wasn't till I scrolled Up, looking for anything else, I saw the stunning 'Now' shot that should have Followed that 'Then' one! :D

But, fukk yeah! The comparison certainly shows the difference! Unimaginable, what must have been put into that change! Wow!

??... always a bit ass about face mate, but thanks...it has taken some resolve to keep at it!!

 

So for nigh on 25 years I've been in the building game, and I know how to measure, areas are a doddle... so why the f**k have I just done a hour and half round trip for 11 slates for flooring I measured wrong....stuff like that breaks me!! Lol

Cheers Sean,

Really pleased with how the paviers turned out, we wanted granite sets at first but was over double the cost..

  Oh, I can share that pain! ? Building a gate, at the moment. Made the best part of what I'd consider the greatest gate Ever!

'Painted' that and it's drying. Eager to get on, I put the fence beside where it's going to go.

Finally slowed down enough to think what I was doing. Measured the gate? Perfect! Bang on three foot! I'm a hero!

Measured the gap I've now left? 35 1/2"!!!

Been on the night shift last few nights...

Windows in...one wasn't delivered will be in tomorrow..ffs!

Loads of work to the outside areas, gravel, fencing, patios etc...finished the decking last night...... always seems like another niggle, and materials are a f***ing nightmare right through this... 

Can't wait to start the next one!!! Lol
