The front room at this house is half the size of the one where we
lived before which is what prompted my to bury everything in the
walls. It cost twice as much as it would have done with everything in
the room but we've saved an awful lot of space.


I like the idea though. Does it work well? I was given a 42" Plasma
recently [1] but there is nowhere in this 3 bed Victorian cottage to
put it!


It's a great way of hiding something that is large and would be
otherwise out of place. For more inspiration and loads of pictures of
other peoples work, have a look he-

Sounds a lot more challenging than my projects!


Well, not really, just more of it maybe. Like when we built the Kit
car. Many people (at that time) had done the various bit's involved in
building a car when repairing one, they just hadn't done them all at
the same time! ;-)


Something I have always fancied doing but never had a garage until
now. It's on my 'list of things to do before I die'...

Garden next after the inside of the house!


Garden, noo, we aren't *that* old g! No, *motorcycling, cycling,
boating, power kite flying / bugging, RC modeling, clay shooting,
archery, camping .... *;-)


I don't mean planting pansies... Big rugged things involving diggers,
rocks and wood

[1] A chippy mate was given id from a trendy clothes shop when doing
some shop fitting in there and gave it to me when he replaced it with
an LCD jobby. I think there is some slight burn-in on the screen but I
thought it might make a good Wii screen. ;-)


The nice thing about Plasma's is that they are pretty Wii-proof
compared with LCD's!
