Probably legally, but not morally, in this case, I think.

Hi Robin,

That's what I meant by not being pedantic. :cheers:

Know the law, but live to your own standards.

Spent three days last week vacuuming the cobwebs from the ceilings and walls of my barn, and then this week spraying 80+ litres of white emulsion on to the same!

It's now bright and cheerful, just waiting to be filled :cheers: so today Patrick helped me with some heavy shifting - 1 x 300TDi engine, 3 (or was it 4 :stars: ) Series gearboxes, two Disco boxes and one Defender box, as well as a workbench and lots of sundry other kit.
Thanks to Martyn for the loan of a second engine crane - it made it so much easier to have one at each location :bow:

Tomorrow we will move another 300TDi engine, then hopefully start moving vehicles :gold:

The house can wait - I'm busy with the barn :whistle:

Cheers,
Robin.

Spent the weekend moving photocopiers and booklet maker to the office cabin in the garden at the new place, taking out superfluous (I hope!) vertical supports in the barn, taking down the very heavy industrial ventilator fans, and changing the lights from sodium to fluorescent units.

After all that work, Patrick needed a break this afternoon, so decided to try out the zip line :cheers:

HERE

Cheers,
Robin.

Looks fun, is that to make a quick run down to the shed?

Now that would be handy, but no, it stretches from halfway down the lawn to the little woodland area.

The previous owner had started putting up a 'treetop' route in the trees, including scramble nets so his kids could zip down the line then go from tree to tree like monkeys :laugh:
