    I've got a better chance of seeing Halley's Comet before your shed is finished!

    Never met anyone in Aus who worked for the government and wasn't a nazi. Oooh, if your concrete cracks in your shed ummm. What exactly? But let's pretend that "we are just good public servants doing our job".

    What is going down under the carport roof? Compacted road base or something nice and solid I hope.
    It’s a good start though mate. Been a long journey just to get to this stage.
    Maybe it will stop raining in time for the shed kit

    Yea wet clay isnt fun .... luckily its raining all this week and not last week

    After everything is up Ill put down some sort of decorative gravel on the driveway and under the carport .... red scoria is nice looking and would fit in with the sandstock brick paving and red roller door , but I think its a bit soft for driveways

    I suppose I should have put concrete but concrete is ugly ..... and Im pretty sure Ive already overstepped my allowable "hard surface" to "open ground" ratio

    OMG you have beaten the parasites, oh sorry, I meant "public servants". Oops, if I offended anyone who works for the government, good, that is my intention.

    Good thing you dont need to lay down under your car on that stuff... may as well be a bed of nails then :)

    Looking good though mate... I am pleased for you. Not long now and you will have your house back and a great workshop.

    You will be able to sleep out there when you renovate the house

    Seriously though. It looks great.
    Well done, looking forward to the lineup of all the bikes.
    Maybe even get the Bonneville up and running.

    I hope it doesn’t leak oil onto your pristine new floor.
