John K's Shed building Adventure

Thanks for the info ....Ill see about that tomorrow............Fortunately ,the kerb is a drive over kind,and there is no concrete strip in the footpath ,just grass.....A couple of trucks have already been in and out.,but nothing like 25 ton .

Roll top gutter should handle 25 ton ok.

Little rain in yesterdays storm,dry and hot today,forecast dry rest of the week.....pour set for 5 am start Tuesday......

I thought you had it scheduled for Saturday? :oops:

Nope ,weekend work needs a special council permit.....they dont miss ya.......The whole thing is just a never ending drama.

Sounds like, The Boys plan on being in the Pub in time to watch the Melbourne Cup.......

He will be too.....helicopter on the finish at 9.30,went very smoothly,except for one agi driver decided to back in ......spun the wheels and slid sideways right across the foot path.......not to worry ,pads finished ,formwork off ,all packed away before 11am.....Had about four shovels full over .

And the neighbours?

Guy directly across from the entrance is the main complainer......think he must have been out.....,I was quick to sweep the roadway and replace all the torn turf in the footpath,looks OK now........Slabs a bit thin on one side ,all the excavation was done with a laser level,dunno how it could be out....All solid now,so getting the metalwork up is next.

Steel came today.......they said the truck would be 14 m long....I thought ,no ,shorter....Wrong.....Anyway ,I says to the driver ,should be able to just drive in......nooo he says.......back an forth a dozen times,over every footpath and drive on the opposite side of the street ....fortunately this is the last delivery ,so cant be stopped now..................Anyhoo ,on the way out ,he sees he could have driven straight in ,drives straight out with a foot to spare on the far side of the road......I just dunno,any more...............Now I gotta stand guard over $20k worth of roofing and steel bits and pieces for weeks while Titan get around to putting it up.
