Which stately home do you live in, and can we come and visit when you've finished! That is a magnificent.

Must admit, I was just thinking those are some impressive mouldings!

Thanks guys.

I installed it all a long while ago but had to repair a few parts due to some water damage. The dome and the panelled ceilings where quite bad but looking better now.

Around the same time, I had two packs of blue bricks left from a chamber and I built this.

I have been doing man chores on Saturday and removed the roof off the shed one handed ( stupid idea, being a batonned 7 by 5 panel, that nearly killed me. Using a spare air con condenser and a garden bench, put it on there as a 'workbench' , stripped the remnants of felt, then used some cold bitumen , painted that, then refelted with some decent stuff that hopefully will last. Found a neighbour who was in, who helped chuck it back up and I screwed it down. 

What I didnt expect, was a really hot day here yesterday  and went to the westfield meet. Well, I wasnt expecting the bitumen to heat up and ooze through the tongue and groove boards, so its been raining tar all over the whole contents of the shed............................ Not happy :down:. I stuck a dust sheet over everything now as going to be 20 deg this weekend. Oh joy...........
