Popular Post Andrew P Posted May 25, 2021 Author Popular Post Share Posted May 25, 2021 A very busy day yesterday. My Grandson came early, and we made a start on the Summerhouse and finished most of it, I just need to trim the roof felt along the front and then paint it, but it was a long hard day working through the lighter showers and enjoying the warmth of the sunshine in between. When the S/H was delivered we were expecting; A floor, 4 x sides, 2 roof sections and the windows and doors. What we got was; 2 x Floor sections 8 side sections, 6 roof sections, Windows and doors, So construction took a lot longer than expected. Today Ricky is picking up the Cement mixer and we are starting on the Patio. 19 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
