So yeah, where I'd left her...

Image

And at approximately 19:30 last night I decided to take her down the garden... On my own! :o

... How hard could it be? :|

... Well I almost got her beached straddling the large "grave" right at the top of the garden and ended up having a bit of an Austin Powers moment, but other than that... it only took about 4 hours :lol: Also, no hernias!!! :D

Got her parallel to the house...

... But then changed my mind, so back out she went...

That's better...

Gale had been making an effort to join me in order to help. Nice how she shows up just in time for the down hill run :roll: ...

And after a further 8 point manoeuvre, where she shall reside :D ...

It was. Although it's suprising just how much propulsion you can get by rotating the actual wheels compared to pushing the car :geek:

That seems like a lot of effort..

What happens when you come to actually building the garage?

:lol: Shame they didn't bring a flash. The candle I had didn't quite cut it.

It was a lot of effort, for 4 hours! But I like a challenge ;) When I was tackling the grave at the top I was worried my neighbour would come out as he'd no doubt offer to help and I wanted to do it all myself :lol:
