Looks like my previous post got lost in space somewhere - sorry

Yep, you can thank me for the rain, you can also thank the guy who had his lawn mower repaired, the person down the road who was going to hold a garden BBQ.......

By close of business Thursday, I had a shed kit partially unpacked. I spent the weekend looking at half the frame through the rain, that was too drepessing

so I closed the curtains and stopped looking for a while. Today, well, we shall see what happens today. Must go write myself a reminder to buy some camera batteries .....

Oh and the biggest stuffup - HWMNBO is going to be cutting some old concrete away so I can open and shut the Personal Door....

cheers
Wendy

Too right!!

Wendy really me dear wee thing I thought you would have KNOWN instinctively that doing a jig around the back yard when a shed is about to arrive and be erected in said back yard is INVITING the rain gods to pelt down on you

... but then to not only do so but to do so in a cheeky little red leatherette number is to beg for the wrath of the wet gods

So now to appease said wet gods you must sacrifice something eh?

So is it up yet?

Huh?

Is it up?

Huh?? HUH??

IS IT??

**RufflyRustic** · 30th April 2007, 08:37 PM

Well, let's see:

Thursday - the kit gets unpacked and prep work done on the gutters.
Friday - half the frame is put up
Monday - the rest of the frame is put up and colourbond walls put up on the gable ends.

Wendy comes home, checks out progress, notices no permaseal.

So I guess you can say the permaseal has been sacrificed.

I will be checking this first thing tomorrow morning.

Not Happy Jan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

**RufflyRustic** · 30th April 2007, 08:40 PM

sigh, no wonder the search didn't turn up anything

it's VERMASEAL girl!!

**Wood Butcher** · 30th April 2007, 09:34 PM

If its included in the contract I would be pushing for the contractor to rectify the problem. From what I know of it it can be retrofitted to a wall, but that is not the case here.

**RufflyRustic** · 1st May 2007, 09:19 AM

Shoulda taken one of Dingo's pills last night

Builderman said don't panic, TotalSpan do it differently, but the vermaseal will still be going in when it's time to do so.....

I don't need the details, I just want to know it's all being done and done right. Whew! Now I can relax. Today is supposed to be insulate the ceiling day.

Looks great all ready

**Waldo** · 1st May 2007, 10:31 AM

G'day Ruffly,

Mmmmm, shed.

How many time have you walked past a window in your house and longingly stared at your shed?

How many nights have you spent sleeping in your shed under the stars while hubby sleeps alone in bed at night?

Ahhh, it's a beautiful thing.

**Honorary Bloke** · 1st May 2007, 10:49 AM

Looks like a shed to me!

Vermaseal, Permaseal, whatever. Just get it up and fire up the sawdust makers. Oh yeah, and tell HWMNOBO to keep hands off!

**ptc** · 1st May 2007, 11:06 AM

Not long now !!!

**BobR** · 1st May 2007, 11:10 AM

It will make a great storage area. You might even have room left over in one corner for a work bench

**RufflyRustic** · 1st May 2007, 01:00 PM

Yep, fantastic for timber storage - shame about the working space

I actually closed the curtains on the weekend as it was so disheartening to have only half the frame put up. Looks heaps better now though

HWMNBO came in on Saturday and told me that I should hurry up and close the door as the shed was getting wet... grrrrr , funny bugger.

Woo Hoo, looking great Wendy
