meadowfield 1,900 #58 Posted November 10, 2015 A slow and wet weekend up North, lots of work - but doesn't result in enough progress then the rain really set in and we were flooded out - most of the new stuff in the adjacent bay was under water yesterday was just as wet!

Stormin 4,458 #59 Posted November 10, 2015 Methinks some serious drainage work required. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ian 2,417 #60 Posted November 11, 2015 Great wood working skills with the doors Mark, it's a shame about the flood water.. I'm sure your work out a way of diverting it away from the workshop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
meadowfield 1,900 #61 Posted November 22, 2015 Slow progress, last weeks navigation canal slowed us down. The calm and wet has forced me to this painting in the dining room Missus not impressed, dog keeps jumping up to have a look and gets paint in her paws, then runs off... 2 nigel and HeadExam reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

meadowfield 1,900 #70 Posted December 22, 2015 Just need to roof over between the bays, double doors each end and the job's a good 'un. I'd love to... But time, money, national park planning are all against me. I would also struggle making it warm and dry. It would be a great area, but just too big to Heat! I have to agree with that Norm Nice work Mark, I'm guessing you have the internet fully sorted now? Most folks would I have a home network that hangs in there, if you call ping times of 2000ms and download speeds of 0.47Mbit sorted then yes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
