Haven't done much to the garage recently but i have started working on my back yard. I've built a huge vege garden...it's about 8m long by about 1m wid and .6 deep...the backyard is a mess at the moment. Going have the lawn on two levels all flat. Start: Part way through Finished:

It's a stupid dog crossed with another stupid dog. Chihuahua x Pomeranian or something. I don't like it and it doesn't like me, which suits me fine.

Got a cheap bench/shelving unit from Mitre10 yesterday. It's a lot bigger than i thought, or the garage is a lot smaller...not sure which but gets my tools off the ground. Will still go with a folding bench when i get the time to do it...the bench will do for now. FYI The thing in the cage is not mine, it's the flatmates. Its a weird creature.

Finished lining the walls this morning. I need to tidy a few things up that i'm not overly happy with and then sort out some shelving and a work bench. Pretty keen on the folding work bench idea at the front end of the shed.

Thats a good idea, i'll look into that once o finish lining it etc.

Purchased and moved into my first home about 8 weeks ago. The garage is a small poverty spec single Skyline type. I got bored a couple of weeks ago and decided to throw up a couple of sheets of ply so i had a place to hang some of my tools and maybe a put a work bench etc. Long storey short i enjoyed doing it so decided to put up some more the following pay day. Budget is minimal hence a couple of bits every fortnight, eventually the whole shed will be lined...well the walls anyway. I might have to re-do a couple of bits, the studs are not 600 apart so some sheets are to big or too small etc. I don't really have a plan as such but i would like to some day run electricity to the shed, just some basic hot points and a couple of lights, all i have at the moment is a solar light i got off tardme which is only really good for helping me not trip on shit when i get home at night. I'm not glueing any of the ply down at this stage for that reason. I'm just running an exstension cord from the house for the power tools as well. Likewise if anyone knows a sparky that might be able to help me out with that on the Kapiti Coast area that would be a bonus. Shit pics follow, sorry no decent before shots but yeah have a look anyway.

Looks really good.

Have decided to sell this.... $1 reserve.... http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=526579575&ed=true If the buy now is used I'll deliver in the Auckland area for free.

The light kit did come with one but seems little point attaching it without the wiring etc

Just got them off TM http://www.trademe.co.nz/sports/cycling/parts-accessories/wheels-tyres/auction-495026126.htm

Comments, ideas, criticism and abuse welcome.....

So purchased my self a Raleigh 20 for my birthday. Wasn't going to do anything to it, and by OS standards i haven't really touched it at all but thought i'd start a thread anyway. When i got it : White walls added: Cheap dynamo light from Ebay bolted on but not wired up because it never came with any wiring and i'm to useless and lazy to figure it out: And that's it for now. Maybe next on the list is a Brooks saddle or similar style because the current one is a bit un-comfy, and maybe new rims and brake cable etc etc.

whatever delete my account then i can't be fucked with this site if there are people like this on here....

Have been without a car for a few months now after selling my ute. Got this to throw my bike into when i head out to Woodhill and to Rotorua and Tauranga etc. Will still use my bike for around town stuff can't be bothered with traffic on the motorway everyday. No huge plans really, probably just some sounds if anything. Runs well, a bit rough around the edges but not bad for what i paid. Has 6 months WOF and Rego so will be happy if it lasts that long.

Was a good to finally put a couple of faces to names from the forum here and see a few of the cars. I didn't hang around to long but was good while i was there. Thanks heaps.
