of course what you can't see is it extends a good few feet further behind him and its got attic space!!!!!

Insulated for winter, add more lights and i'd think of it has a little bit of heaven on earth!

If Nat was a woman, and attractive, inteligent, rich, witty i'd marry him / her

Got loads of clearance now, at least 1mm

I moved house/area to get the space for a garage,managed to get 23ft x 10.5ft so its cosey enough.

Cosey with the halogen heater in the winter, TV/stereo plenty of 240v sockets all round

If i can find the pic of stevem's garage you will all think you are lucky,his garage is more like a cupboard i cant believe he built his locost in it.

This has been posted beore but if i had the money
