Default Your Garage!

For those of us who are lucky enough to have a garage in this world with ever increasing house prices, what's you garage like.

Mine contains many framed pictures of semi clad women on MotoGP bikes.

A crap piece of left over carpet to keep the bike on.

Many Flags draped down the wall cos I can't afford or be arsed to paint them.

Cross Trainer the missus bought and used only twice.

Weights bench I bought and only used once!

Shelves with countless tools and decorating kit and I still cannot find what I need.

Oh and a big black Spider called Nigel!


My mate is looking at Marble flooring for his cos he work's for a Grand Prix team and is a jammy git to be able to afford it.

On one side I have shelving with various items including assorted tools and DIY equipment, motorcycle accessories, bulk purchases, tent, cleaning materials and unwanted Christmas presents. I also keep my wheelie bin on that side of the garage.

Down the middle is a rather large E Class which sort of domiantes the space.

Along the other side is a tumble drier and the CBR1100XX.

I did manage to squeeze the SV infront of the shelves, but it really was impractical so that's now in my parents' garage.

Well mine contains


SV of course

2 off 8ft cabinets filled with tools/fittings etc. 1 8ft set of dexion with paint/ reels of cable etc. Workbench, roll cab and tool box, paddock stands, compressor, welding gear etc.. All the above is justifiable what is not.

Lawn mower, lawn rake. gardening tools. push bike. Son's tools (why does he pinch mine?) 6 ft upright freezer, 4 ft fridge. ahhhhh


ok fridge is full of MY beer. I wanted a shed and greenhouse for all the gardening stuff behind the garage. £3500 later we have a nice patio with gazebo and pretty place to sit and drink Pimms of a summers evening, but nowhere to store anything.
