There's no doubting that took a lot of hard work. Well worth the effort though! You must be pleased how well it's turned out.

That is brilliant well done Im well impressed. Got to say what a fantastic garden and surroundings too.

Ive not been able to do anything, I seem to be plagued with car troubles and struggling to keep my taxi on the road, one thing after another.

Building a new enclosure for my friends next week should I get on top of this car

I agree - this looks great. I'd be interested in something very similar but with direct contact with the ground.

Are you using electrics in there Matt?

I have lumisol in a roll but not sure how to fasten it ? sandwich between frames of wood ?
