the MAN CAVE!

As you may be aware, our place has been a building site for the past couple of months...

Where once we had grass (weeds), a small wooden shed and space to play, we now have piles of timber, deep holes and the skeletal frame emerging of a genuine MAN CAVE!

Helped significantly by a cast of many, this project is slowly taking shape.

Special thanks already to Pappy on hammer
G'Marg, Ro, Libby on boys, scones and cakes
Muzz and Jon on second hammer and master builder Paul
Frank and Arthur on measuring things nd very helpful help...

Some photos below of this project in its stages which should speak for themselves

once upon a time...

we moved a little shed...

to create space...

to dig a hole...

to build a box...

and dig some holes...

we got around a few trucks full of stuff...

poured some concrete...

and started to build...

with a little help...

it started to grow...

and pass its building inspections!

The bloke from the council has twice said at our building inspections "very tidy - nice job" - he thinks me an Pappy are pros - you can see why.

Lots to do over XMas with cladding to go on and windows to go in - so drop on by and bring a hammer and a friend!

The mention of scones is a hint. I haven't made scones - that's one of G'Marg's specialities....
