Garage Refurb - by a 'YouTube Qualified' novice during lockdown

[Lifeboatboy]

Your garage looks fantastic especially with the signage

I was thinking with the first shot the other day why has the site not sprouted a 21 storey flat building since your id says 'Location London'

Because the developers know I lack tact and diplomacy

Ref 'London' - to me, anywhere within the M25 is 'London' these days. Is that just me?

You only just make it then, by about 25 metres!

Here's my contribution, the picture I took through your gates back in April

Adrian, not wishing to encourage your friends’ mockery of you (shameless as they are), but I have this ‘friend’…

…who also had the (ha - ridiculous, right?) idea of putting a TV in her/his/(PC aware…) it’s (FFS, really?) garage.

I was just wondering (on their behalf)…? Old TV with a dodgy homemade internet connection, or a more recent one with WiFi? I only ask because ‘my friend’ thought they’d make use of a few hundred DVDs, if they ceiling-mounted an old, but perfectly operational 50” plasma. If ‘my friend’ could chuck in a Firestick or something similar, would that let ‘my friend’s’ old TV access the nearby WiFi?

If your "friend" took the latter approach, it will work a treat! I put an old 32" TV in with a Fire stick. Nice cheap solution and good use of a Tv that would otherwise find its way to the recycling centre.

If I had enough space I would "expand" it somewhat to a car simulator setup, but fortunately for my wallet I'll never get a garage extension through local planning! But just an idea for those that have the space

Thx for your message OP, your kind words are appreciated

Who on earth would do that - drive a sim in their garage next to their car? Their wife would take the piss mercilessly!




(To be fair on a 10 foot screen it just had to be done. What's with this 32". Golf simulators have their uses )
