Congrats on the new Grandchild John. Do her parents live near by? If so you'll be getting less time for the garage!!!

but it'll be worth it.

Does every person in the U.K. have projects in their garages? I don't know anyone in the US that has that. Seriously, not one.

I'm assuming that everyone there knows local shops, tool and die, machine, welders and steel benders. Unless.... You guys do that your selves.

I pat my self on the back when I sweep my garage. I'm trying real hard to do as much of my Creepy Kat project as I can, I think it will keep my sanity in tact in my post 50th. I really do.

In general many Brits have projects in shed ...known as 'man caves' here, whether it's an old Brit, an old jap bike brought over from the US..we have companies who specialise in bringing in stuff from the US as you seem to abandon them before we do ....it is no so uncommon to see 80-90s stuff used as everyday transport.
There are many sheds that have lawnmowers ,cars , agricultural machinery undergoing restoration/ repair.
There are many clubs for these were people have skills and help each other out. Or armed with a manual will have a go . The clue is Man cave ! Kettle/ beverage, planet rock on the radio and out of sight!
We even have a lawnmower museum!

I have to own up to having a Noddy bike in bits in my shed. It's a Velocette LE200 Mk2. It has a hand lever to start it, a hand operated gear lever, and best of all a glove compartment! It has been in bits ever since I bought it circa 1978. I will get around to fixing it up one day. I think it will be quite a laugh trundling around on it, but working on it is far from top priority at the moment.
