I've got my garage back.........yippee!
« on: 07 November 2006, 06:44 »
I've managed to negotiate the hire of a garage (std 16' x 8') for £30/month for storing the cabriolet. Finally I can use my garage once again :smiley:

I'm finishing some scheduled work on the mk4 (timing belt, water pump etc.) and then I'll tow it down there later today..............less than a mile away so nice and convenient :smiley:

First job will be a damn good tidy out!

'real work' ...........talking of which, Hazel wasn't keen on the extra expenditure of £30/month. I managed to bribe her by pointing out that with the car out of the way I will have decent, clean and tidy workshop to use for getting jobs done around the house :wink:

Used a similar excuse to take 2 years out of making the wardrobes in order to build my garage! :grin:

its nice to have somewhere to store your car/s. Not having to worry about them rusting away during the rainy winter months

We pay £400 a month between 5 of us for this place at the moment:

You know, that's bordering on depressing me. It's £75/mth cheaper than my house rent, and about 50% larger!
Argh! :laugh:
