    Oh dear marge..I am sorry to mislead you! [​IMG]
    It's my position when I took the pic's that has changed..not the shed.
    The base is what I laid ready for the g-house.

    Lucky you Paladin, still Friday's not far away looks like you are all set up for the arrival. Mr D bought me a new greenhouse two weeks ago but I will have to wait until next month for it. It was one of the display models they were selling at 25% off but they don't take them down until then.I can't wait either, still something to look forward to. [​IMG]

    I'm sure you'll enjoy it! Who is going to put it up? Nice to have help, I think, more sociable.
    You shouldn't have any trouble with glazing! [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]

    Good work Pal,
    But I thought you were supposed to be 'taking it easy'?!! Hate to see what you'd do if you were really motoring!! :D

    :D Yes it has thanks!

    Delivered on Friday as promised. Unfortunatly the silly little man who brought it would not put it behind our house for me, as we had arranged with Focus, because he said it was against Health and Safty rules to do so.
    I was in no fit state to give him a slap,..but the poor sod felt the full force of Mrs Pals tounge lashing!!...She even frightened me :eek: What a woman!!
    Anyway,we complained to Focus and they will reimbusre the delivery charge of �£12.
    I can't put it together myself just yet,which is a bit frustrating,but maybe I'll have a go during the week.

    Take it easy Pal! Just don't overdo it. I bought a greenhouse from Focus and put it together - not easy and quite strenuous.

    Nick, listen to what they are saying, and time to delegate to others if that's at all possible! ;) ;)
