Small jobs and spending some quality time with Sally who is extremely tolerant of my time spent down the garage and carport.

When we laid out the roofing, it turned out that I had 800mm excess on the last sheet, so we blended that gain into the roof with overlaps.

However, I also allowed myself the luxury of a 300mm gain on the width of the roof.

Overlap.

So I added a bit more timber to the end, and this will allow for the extra guttering to be mounted.

Much better, dark green paint mixed and added.

Moved some shelving around.

More changes to come.

Also painted the sides of my garden tool cabinet, moved it about 150mm over to the left and under the roof.

Then gave the wall a coat of durable, washable paint.

And once done, this was the view over Mickeys hedge from under the carport.

This morning’s Facebook Flashback to 11 years ago.

Haynes Museum, RR’s Gathering

Mickey made a valid, funny comment last night, asking me what I am going to do when I run out of stuff to do, to keep me busy.

Who knows, life is good. We will keep busy.
