Don’t forget to buy yourself a life size plastic human skeleton and throw it in with the concrete. It will make you chuckle on cold nights to think of a future home improver or developer maybe many years after we are all long gone uncovering it and the mayhem it would cause until the realisation th...

Morning Nobody told me the clocks have changed so I have been up since 6.30.not good for moral. Thank you for the comments,this is the only forum I go on and do not use any social media I am not very interested in technology and stuff, As for the pit I have finished the block work the lights and soc...

It was not meant to be aggressive,but I was afended by some of the comments assuming I had not put any thought in to my work,

Hi I need to reply to some of the comments. I do NOT live in the U.K. The pit will NOT become a swimming pool. The broken pipe is just rubbish that was left under the floor before it was concreted. The construction method is appropriate for the application. I am a builder with 30 years experience,16...

Whilst the hole looks dry in the pictures, it is surprising how quickly the water table can rise at this time of year,and the...

Thanks to ranjan for his choice of Hôtel it was very nice

As promised my review First of all I would like to thank speed monster for organizing and running another brilliant track day.the day was fully booked but there was very little queuing at the end of the pit lane and loads of room on track. I arrived at the track at 7.30 am signed on and prepped the ...
