Up until a week or so ago this is how my garage looked.  As you can see theres about a bajillion wheels and tyres and loads of other tat in there. Luckily its a pitched roof so i've begun to board the loft out so i've got extra storage space in there. Me and my gf's brother are gonna re-start out car valeting business so need to have enough room to get the more expensive cars in the garage. Made quite a bit of progress but no pics as of yet.

Since when were garages for putting cars in? ;D
Don´t suppose you´ve got a set of 15´s Wolfrace 5 x 112 in that pile?
Good luck with the new business.

Yeh all sorted now baz had a big do when you left lol. Some "mild progress" pics. As is usual it ends up really untidy as everything that was in the loft before needed to go on the floor so:  However my wheels and other nice bits are now stored here - probably the dryest part of the garage and a bit draughty so should keep the alloy in decent nick.

I cleaned out the garage and chucked 2 car loads worth of curse word when the 205 went to be painted, Fortnight later the garage was rammed full of curse word again. When they rang to say the car was ready for collection I had to ask them to hang on to it for a couple days, whilst I made room for it the garage.

^^^ I had the same problem when I returned to the matrimonial home to clear my other Imp and all my other stuff out of the garage. Got there to find the ex- had piled her cr*p all over my gear. Took ages to dump all her tat on the patio before I could get my stuff out. Shame really, it was p*ssing it down too |

Taken me ages to get this sorted. I got it tidy but then it got filled with all the new SPAM FROM. However I had a couple of days on it. Got the loft fully boarded, then put some new cupboards up and a workbench. Its now got 2 working strip lights, it'll need a full rewire as theres only one double socket so will sort the others out when thats done. I also started painting it thats just one coat. Still got the final tidyup to do but most stuff is out of the way now.  Matt |
