Cuppa,
when everything is up and running and I claw back some of the initail outlay

, vat and a few lets, I don't see any problem in some of the "more sensible firestormers" calling by. If you have no objection in sharing a king size bed that is.
Timbo,
driveway could probably accommodate at least 50 storms, security provided by a Mr Winchester!! and Mrs Collie dog. When I do the cobbles/lockblock on the parking area I was planning to put in a few ground anchors.
Sirc, you bet I will be glad to see it finished, I started in Sept 2006, 16 long hard months. The only things i did not tackle myself were the central heating and the electrical works, the latter for obvious reasons.
Cheers
A.M.
