Thought that might grab your attention.

So rambling on to the purpose of this post. When the garage was being
converted some years ago they built a 'temporary' abortion at the end of
their garden - up against my and next door's garden fences. Only to store
garden tools etc while the garage work was done, he said. It's made out
of
8' x 4' sheets of ply stood on their ends, with similar as a flat roof
but
covered with bright green tarpaulin. Which flaps a lot in the wind. Every
so often their 'handyman' who built it bashes away with a hammer to keep
it standing. And today he's been constructing a sort of tapered truss
structure for the roof as of course the tarpaulins would have leaked more
on a flat roof. Making it even higher.


Tommorow night at about 11:30, sprinkle it with diesel, then at about 5 to
midnight sprinkle a bit of petrol on it, then aim a few of your new year
rockets at it on the stroke of midnight
