That looks better

And with the missing fence panels sorted between us and the neighbours (bottom right) it won't be quite so easy for anyone to walk in through the neighbours unlocked gates and break into our garage to nick our bikes (when we get round to replacing them that is). Using some of the insurance money to buy a metal bike storage shed. Weighs 16 stone, is bolted to the garage floor and has high security locks. I think the new bikes should be reasonably safe.

Work was done by a young lad who has done similar work for us in the past. Took him 2 1/2 days, which included removing the old concrete posts so money well spent. I worked from home although he did say that it wasn't necessary as long as he could gain access to the garden. Fair enough but he has used our toilet so many times over the last 3 days I dread to think what he would have done if I had not been at home. No telling what we would have found when digging over the new flower beds come spring.

Just scanned the news whilst enjoying a cuppa. Story about the leads in the Big Bang Theory each offering to take a pay cut so that the two lesser stars of the show, Bernadette and Amy. I was initially impressed until I learned that the so called stars earn $1M each per episode. Generosity has to be viewed on context and the overriding thought here is HOW MUCH!!!!!! It's not even that funny, they've been recycling the same old gags since series one.
