Weekend off or are we continuing?

We don't do thing by halves...




Water level going up this morning - tanker is here filling.



More backfill arrived just now and being put into place.



And the world's worst shed gets erected as a temporary plant house before I can get a summer house style one put up!

All before 8 o'clock, impressive stuff. I'm thinking about cutting my grass over the weekend.

Keep the photos coming.
I can keep an eye on the lads remotely through your posts.
If they start slacking just shout at them. It's all I do to motivate them.

Hi mate!

Will do, and I'll let them know you are watching their work today!

Can't believe there isn't a live stream of this happening!
Nice work team!

I've found poking lackeys with a stick the most effective method. You should try it. A sharp one.

That's a good shout. Where is the webcam for this project, you could then get a great time lapse of the build.

Not too late op

Re the shed. Give some thought to a block and render structure to improve sound insulation.

At least you'll be able to gauge it with the temp shed.

If you want a custom shed building, I'm not too far away.

If your offer is still open please PM me. I had no idea how difficult it was to get a shed and the only thing of sufficient size I could get in time is shockingly weak!

We thought about that, but wouldn't it need planning?

Might be too late now but we had an "underground" plant room for a pool. Basically a tanked hole in the ground with a fixed ladder down through a manhole cover.

Yes, I think we are too late for that option now!

As long as you are not listed, probably not.

Unfortunately it is forward of the principle elevation of the house (the idiots who drafted the rules never considered that the principle elevation might not actually face the road).

Can't believe you are slacking off on a Saturday, If we knew what your business was called i'm sure you would be getting calls about this
