Not a Lude thread... Not even a car thread... But definitely a build thread ;-) Finally my garage build commences!!! :D :rock: :clap:

Of course in great tradition it's not going to be a speedy process as I'll be building it myself :lol: but the builders that are building my rear extension are going to do the garage foundations at the same time, and they start digging tomorrow! :D

Progress on all my cars is generally always slow going as I generally always have internal home improvements on the go and nowhere to properly work on a car. I bought my house 6 years ago in quite a "retro" state, but I saw plenty of potential and I was mainly sold on the size of the plot. The main criteria when I was looking to buy was that it needed to have room for a garage.

The garden as it stood this morning (180 degree panoramic view)...

With the old lean-to removed ready for the full width extension...

The mountain of rubble I've acquired :? This will be broken down and used for hardcore for the drive...

And the garage base marked out (The white lines) ;-) (These pictures don't really do it's size justice)...

The proposed plan...

Image

And the proposed site...

Yeay for me! :D I will of course keep this updated with progress ;-)

I see your son has got his priorities right. Dibbing the 1st garage spot with his Little Tike.
