I dont know what else you do up there but that's an awful lot of bog roll you have.

If that is your man cave, where is your kettle, comfy chair and tv so you do have to interact with the missus?

I wanted to photoshop this:



onto this:



But realised three things:-

1. It's quite late

2. Mrs Cjellis laptop has no image editing software onboard

3. It probably wasn't worth the effort for a fairly low end attempt at a hopefully visually humorous solution to the OP.

If anyone else can sort it, knock yourself out.

father is an industrial electrician, so when in andrex factory does well for himself haha saves alot of money!

there is indeed a toaster and kettle! was mine and my fathers project and hobby when i was little! just remembering how amazing it was.

It's now become an escape route, put the hatch down were up there hours tinkering, no mother/girlfriend anyones coming up, its a worth while investment!

I have a similar thing.
It's a garage with an old car in it.
A kettle hasn't made it in there yet but its only a matter of time.

Have you tried meths on the track. I seem to remember it being good at cleaning model railway track when I was a kid.

funny idea with the photoshop! i remember once seeing a road cleaner scalextric car from one make or an other!
hmmmm

and man caves are the very best! interesting have to look it up, got a fair list now thanks alot guys, going to take bloody ages to clean the circuit and run the 200 cars up to pace to loosen them up.
