Zukys new home
 

Well the past 3 days have been all about putting a giant metal shed up to house Zuky, hoping that if I keep her at home I will get back on her.

Well here is how my garden started ....

Then we had to dig 6 inches of clay mud out which had concrete slabs on top which was a nightmare.

Re: Zukys new home
 

6 inches? looks more like 12 to me :) nice zuky house that is :)

Re: Zukys new home
 

ere i got one o them, hope it don't leak like mine!!

I can get 3 bikes in..how bigs yours?

Re: Zukys new home
 

I notice the lack of rakes on the ground :D .

SPANG!!!!! ........ STAGGER .......

Re: Zukys new home
 

I have one that you could get three bikes in but works better with two.
I just wish they made them taller.

Mine doesn't leak.....well not now.
Cured easily enough by covering any suspect screws on the roof with clear silicone caulking.

Re: Zukys new home
 

Mine is 10ft x 13ft and I will tell ya if it leaks LOL :D, and yeah I agree about the height, was a bit better after taking 6 inches of mud out tho LOL

Re: Zukys new home
 

6 real inches = 12 "man" inches :lol:

Re: Zukys new home
 

shells third pic shows just how much was removed lol

Re: Zukys new home
 

How come you didn't remove everything before putting the shed there?!!

Re: Zukys new home
 

My Builder was meant to be building me a base a week before, he got there and I think it was too much work for him so he built me a moat LOL - the trench of concrete and left the rest. I didnt have time so figured build the shed and worry about the rest after, least it could be done come rain or shine that way. He is now due to poor concrete in which will set no matter what the weather :)

Botch it and run LOL .... it worked out well in the end, bit of hard work but we got it done !

Re: Zukys new home
 

well it was time v's the weather, the builder who did the foundations was worried about all the rain we had been having and the building was the main concern + i dont think he had time to do a full base and it have time to fully dry out (weather again)

Re: Zukys new home

Re: Zukys new home

Then he said "I could eat that again" :puker:

Re: Zukys new home
 

You have got to be Joking , surely . Even I don`t eat that much . Did that brekky cost more than the shed then ? And anyway , Beer is a breakfast you know :D

Re: Zukys new home

Re: Zukys new home
 

I saw the thread & thought "WTF? You've not have you?!?!"

Then I saw the pics & thought "Hang on a min, it doesn't look like that!" :confused:

Don't do this to me woman! :lol:

Looking good though. :thumbsup:

Re: Zukys new home
 

Ha ha ha you thought I sold her didnt ya LOL

Better than when you came down, all round the front too, no more gravel !!

Re: Zukys new home
 

nearly as big as my ouse that, nice .

Re: Zukys new home
 

Looks very nice now Shelly,

I was a bit worried looking at your first couple of pics as there looked like a steep drop to the shed door. Nice solid path now.

Re: Zukys new home
 

Very solid, concrete inprint gotta be sealed now so will be a dark grey when it is finished. I couldnt ride Zuky over the grass and rubbish was too much hard work.

If I dont spend my 7 weeks touring on Zuky I will do the rest of my garden, top soil over the grass and next to the shed and returf and dig up along the path and plant a few shrubs.

Re: Zukys new home
 

No wonder you're skint! Printed concrete drive just for a bike? I have to put up with old flagstones, a wooden "runway" and a wonky man-hole cover!

Pete

Re: Zukys new home
