The Workshop moving Thread

Recommended Posts

Morning all, as you know yesterday was shack contents moving day, and what a long day it was!!

 

I didn't take too many photo's as we were a bit busy, but here's a few..

 

My "extended bed" Saxon trailer with the first load..

The shack looking a bit emptier..

The moving crew.. well, most of them.. Pete, Rob and Chris.. The other helper known as Mr Pickles did a runner as soon as the camera came out :lol:

Just a quick update on the new workshack.. I've not had much time to get there and do much, but a productive day day was had Thursday.

With Nigel's help (thanks old bean :thumbs: ) we managed to get 2 benches up and some floor space cleared :)

 

I will get some photo's when I next get the chance to be there which is looking like Wednesday at the moment..

Morning chaps, well today is the day the old shack comes down.. I just hope the rain goes away!!

 

Anyway I made a good start on stripping the inside yesterday, all the wiring is out and most of the interior panels are down.. And so far I've only found one mouse nest in the walls! :D

We didn't quite manage to get it all apart, by the end of a very long day it looked like a hurricane had been through the garden :lol:

Surprised you made such progress yesterday if you had the same amount of rain as was up here :rain: !.

 

Will be interesting to see if the ground under the raised floor look's like a Swiss Cheese or not, what with all the Bunny Wabbit activity you've had in the past :) .

Trust you will not be short of fuel for a Guy Fawkes Night Bonfire

Hi Richard, yeah it was rather a wet day.. But the shack had to come down..

I can't decide of the bunnys have dug holes under the shack or if the just use it as a through route to the yummy grass :lol:

I will find out tomorrow when the rest of the shack comes down and the floor comes up...

Yesterday was a nice day weather wise and the shack floor had never looked so clean!!

As the first floor board came up I was wondering how many rabbit holes I would find as they do like the garden here and are/were always running under the shack!

 

TM33_zps8ba4aa81.jpg

 

 

As it turned out there was only slight bunny digging in one corner, but no holes.

I did have one very unexpected find though.. I found Limpy... Or what was left of him/her!

Limpy was a young fox cub that could be seen pottering about the place last year.. As you will of guessed Limpy had a limp hence the name..

At one point he/she wasn't look too well but the last couple of times I saw him/her, he/she was looking much better with a nice coat of fur at last..

 

I guess he/she wasn't doing too well as I found the remains yesterday!

Anyway, the shack is all down now, the base frame has been split into manageable size chunks that will fit on a big trailer with no problems..

And all being well it should all be taken away tomorrow which is also house moving day!!   Should be fun laugh.png
