Default Why CAN'T BRITS BUILD GARAGES...?



Bit of light hearted fun from my escapade of trying to wash the underside of my Jk after doing 60 miles off-road across Salisbury Plains military area.

That is hilarious, good work using some creativity though! Up in Canada its about the same thing. Have a slightly widened double car garage... love it!

Also, I hope you are not crawling under there when its up on those planks, looks like an accident waiting to happen if they snap.

They're sleepers, so they'll take the weight just fine. Not sure about the wall, though. So, no, I keep to one side just in case!

Well that is good. Very nice look Jeep!

Should mention that while we might have garage's on the UK, just the small amount of background scenery you can see in your photos is a good example of what you do not see here. I'm from Europe myself and the one thing I miss is the appearance just the general infrastructure has.

Dunc,

You didn't show people where you started from.

This is mine from the same trip, just needs a bit of work.

Lol! I did post about that yesterday but if anyone missed it there's a brief write up with very muddy photos here:

As soon as I have my Pixie back, I will do my best to do so. It seems it's in Customs right now...

I follow your site and I have to say I am enjoying it very much! Keep up the posts and the nice pictures.

Good stuff, hope to see you there and thanks for the encouragement on the site. It's a fun project and keeps me busier than expected!
