    The wife is always getting on at me for walking in and out the house for buckets of warm water (mucky boots on the floor)
    Soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

    On friday I got my mate to make a few changes to my garage..:doublesho

    Before.......


    4 hours later and about £110 including labour :thumb::thumb: it now looks like this:thumb:





    Hot & Cold and the 1 on the left is a hot cold mixer for the pressure washer.


    He also fitted a outside tap at the front of the garage (save me using the one out the back)

    Used them at the weekend, the pressure washer is a lot better with warm water and no muddy boot prints in the hall and kitchen

    Hope you like my wee pimped garage:wave:

    the thing I'm amazed at is how tidy your garage is. I've never known a bloke who can keep a tidy garage do you send your wife out to tidy it for you.

    We got new central heating and it was fine, they installed a massive radiator in the living room but at the back wall. Everyone else felt the room was cold at the front wall…..

    Anyway when the plumber came I got him to add an outside tap and socket…while he was there, best thing I ever did. I can wash away without hose pipes or electricity cables trailing through the house and better still no moans about the front door open. I only use the inside hot to mix my foam lance……

    Bliss…………….


    I have a nice double drive at the front but if I had a garage it would have been the first thing I would have got..

    Mini as it was. As it is. As it always will be. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, it's up to you to decide if it counts!

    Best "mod" I've seen for a looooong time - and it's not even on a car, it's FOR a car. Well done that man.

    But what about that garage! It's even carpeted for crying out loud!

    And what's in those buckets of Dodo Juice? Dodo Juice?

    The plumper is coming back in a couple of weeks to
    fit a radiator in the garage (just for winter time)
