Look if its a problem I've got the pair of 4m wide bifolds so I'll just park in there. There's two fire alarms in there too.

You could put some metal grills or something to secure your car hole from intrusion, then you could shelve all sorts of things in there.

The smart car driver's door will not currently open from the inside. If it was taps aff weather it would be fine to dukes of hazzard it, but with my... er girth its not really viable for me to squeeze in with the roof on. I mean I probably could but theres no way I could reposition myslef inside in order to drive. In other car news google is winding me up about my car fleet. gently caress you google  And heres an update on the fiat panda's worthiness as a work vehicle  Building wise, all the insulation in the vaulted room is now installed! It was already installed once. But I had to take some back off as I forgot a couple of network cables that need to be laid into. The fridge data one, so my fridge can order me bottles of wine, and the kitchen PIR one so that the house can tell I've passed out on the kitchen floor again.  I've pre run those network cables in the high up data trunk which meant remembereing to push in the little retaining clips from the end which means they wont all fall out before I've got the lid and plasterboard on  my new phone can zoom  The final layer of insulation is flush with the data and power trunking in the ceiling so the plasterboard can be installed over neatly. Its a bit more complicated in the kitchen end where a whole bunch of data, lighting and power conduits have to run down to the wall and ground. You can hopefully see where I've chiseled out insulation for them to run in and taped over in silver tape in an attempt to retain vapour/air tightness.  You can also see the neighbours garden which looks lovely. conduits encapulated into ceiling and wall, run down in wall chases ready to do whatever. All this will actually eventually be behind a set of full height kitchen units with a couple of ovens and fridge/freezer, mostly what the power is for.  Got the weird corner ceiling timbers hidden away too, nice and neat  Also bought myself, somewhat prematurely, a plus height plasterboard lift. They seem to usually be 11ft. whatever 11 foot means. But I've bought a 16foot one, whatever 16foot means.  The thinking is it will work in the lower flat ceiling rooms but also allow me to, working alone, get the plasterboard all the way up to vaulted ceiling from the floor.  Its... a bit wobbly... and doesnt inspire confidence. But we'll make do. Plus they gave me 30quid off cos it was all bent to hell when it arrived and I had to bend it back into shape myself.  I mean I'm going to have to get up there somehow... to like screw it in. But I'll figure it out

To be fair to alice, has anyone that's ever written a work email really intended to send their best regards? Best save those for someone other than a knobhead complaining about his cheap 16ft plasterboard lift being bent.

I often just go with "KR" , which could be plausibly interpreted as "Kind Regards" using context clues. But what I actually meant is "Kill uRself"

It's probably an autoreplace macro, like like when you set your phone to replace '99crs' with "that was a curious decision 99, I can't say that's the typical way of doing it but I can't deny it's an interesting way of approaching the problem."

weathers quite nice. Get outside and do the other soakaways for the roof runoff water. Its quite important these days as if people like me dont sort this out then the tories have an excuse to pump actual poo poo onto our beaches. Which sounds bad, obviously. but you've got to weigh it against how much effort I personally will have to make... A small amount of effort for me... versus the nation's children bathing in poo poo every holiday period for the next century... you can see how its difficult to know what to do. I drive around in my convertible car for a bit to ponder the issue  ok fine. I'll get my spade out and make an effort  So the soakaway needs to be 5m plus fromt he house and 2.5 from any boundary. Easy enough  Before I can use the digger i have to dismantle the fuel system as its full of water. easy enough. and swap my front bucket on, its been a while but still got it.  Nice trench, then I'll dig a big square for the actual soakaway  Come back the next day and...  Hmmm. not sure its ideal that my soakaway is now full to the brim with water before I've even connected any gutters and roof runoff into it.  Its weird, cos I've had no previous suggestion from work onsite that it might be a horrible shreky waterlogged swampy swamphole. weird. You're supposed to do a percolation test and if any water is left in the bottom of your soakaway test pit after 24 hours then you've got issues. They don't tell you what to do if 48 hours later its possibly even fuller  hmmm so we have the pond  New plan is yeah do the soakaway but also we're going to overflow that into the pond which is downhill from the house. And then I'm not quite sure how the drainage on the menage works but we'll plug the pond overflow into that which I think drains all the way across the menage to a culvert at the bottom of the property and off into who cares where.  Although that is also kinds gummed up with all the neighbours poo poo so will need to clear that out too.
