Well after
project 1. the bathroom I've now managed to get

project 2. a 9x7 shed and connect it to my 8x6 and it looks good, I'm having a load of fun cutting drilling and stuff

Project 3 is me thinking about removing the small wall at the front ( I remove the bushes a while back that were there) and replacing it with a 'homemade' sandstone one, now this could be fun as I've found around 5 tons of sandstone localy for a good price......... Also, everyone now says that they miss my house due to the bushes not being there so a 'different' wall sounds like a good idea

Think I need my bumps feeling

car and my weedy quad bike trailer fella........... 25 miles each way so a busy night    some days I hate myself 

[zx10r bob]

OMG 5 tons of the stuff rather you than me fella, well get stuck in ,cus laying bricks and mortor in the snow is no fun...................................good luck fella............

[Andy J]

looking like 3-4tons hopefully, moved 3 trailer loads tonight which was approx 80 blocks of various sizes and there must be I guess another 120 to move, this is a bloody big job.. The 80 will probably make a half decent wall at the front of the house

looks like we will be having a few sandstone walls around the place 

What a bloody bargain

You just dont know when to stop.

[Andy J]

You just dont know when to stop.

aye.......................apparently it's an old pig sty       

[Andy J]

well, I've now got all the stones and fekk me it's a lot and has almost killed me.......... now it's time to start thinking about how to make a wall    in the pic it doesn't look a lot but when you consider it's around 7 car/trialer loads and when you look at it it's a huge amount 



anyhow, shed went up ok last week, just need to make a small piece to fit between the sheds where the felt joins and I'm done there 


got to collect around 50 flagstones from my brother to sorrt the paving to it and it's done then
