Teak Decking on a roof terrace. Teak Decking on a roof terrace. June 12th, 2016. What do you do when your client wants a deck but you only have a 20mm depth to work with? My client likes decks, he also likes boats. So naturally the 2 had to come together somewhere. A normal deck is constructed using 20-50mm decking boards screwed onto rafters of treated wood. Depending on the construction method a typical deck requires at least 120-200mm of depth to secure it in place. And that’s it, problem solved.

Lives By The Woods: Day of the Kraken

http://livesbythewoods.blogspot.com/2009/07/day-of-kraken.html

Lives By The Woods. Country Life it isn't. Although I do live in the country. Saturday, 18 July 2009. Day of the Kraken. Once upon a time there was a small scientific outpost, manned only by a lonely botanist and agronomist, and her highly intelligent robot assistant. The robot was called Dewi, in a lame homage to "Silent Running". The scientific outpost was dedicated to the development of giant fruits and vegetables, to try and stave off the world food shortage, and that. They fought with all of their a...

Lives By The Woods: Communicado

Lives By The Woods. Country Life it isn't. Although I do live in the country. Wednesday, 28 January 2015. Once more I am able to converse on the telephone. Once more, I can surf the myriad wonderful shores of the Internet. Once more I can dick about on Facebook. Once more, we discover that life is not like Star Trek. I went into Settings and tried to reconnect to the relevant WiFi thingy. I turned it off and on again. The last resort. Nope Well, bollocks. And all the neighbours' on either side! He told m...

Lives By The Woods. Country Life it isn't. Although I do live in the country. Wednesday, 19 December 2007. Ah yes.when you have access to a lovely birthday cake, with candles spelling "Happy Birthday", it's surprising what you can find to do. I amused myself by creating appropriate words for a birthday party. Or warnings about eating too much cake. Which would make you look. Then I came up with the alternative Seven Dwarfs. Haypit will be the name of my next dog. 20 December 2007 at 12:00. By which I live.

Lives By The Woods: Socks

http://livesbythewoods.blogspot.com/2015/05/socks.html

Lives By The Woods. Country Life it isn't. Although I do live in the country. Saturday, 23 May 2015. We get all sorts of people in the shop. The one who stands out for me this week though, is the Drunk Socks Man. He came in for the first time mid-afternoon, buying a four-pack of chilled cans of cider. Fair enough. It was a sunny afternoon, and sitting under a tree with a cold cider would be very pleasant. Have I got enough there, darling? He asked. I told him no, he didn't. Well can you do me a deal then?

Lives By The Woods: Creative genius

http://livesbythewoods.blogspot.com/2009/02/creative-genuis.html

Lives By The Woods. Country Life it isn't. Although I do live in the country. Saturday, 7 February 2009. So, we had all this snow yesterday. Mr WithaY came home from work at lunchtime, because apparently the whole site was shut down. I was working at home, as I do on a Friday. We were both home. With a lot of snow. What would you have done with a half an hour of daylight and some excess energy from having been stuck inside for days on end? Then we did this:. We made a snow menagerie! A snow deer, at rest.

Lives By The Woods. Country Life it isn't. Although I do live in the country. Wednesday, 5 November 2014. I've been on holiday. Not for the entire time since the last post on here, sadly, but recently enough for me still to want to tell people about it. Where? Why, to Tenerife, dear reader. That volcanic island not far off the west coast of Africa, where the sun always* shines, the sea is a crystal blue* , the beaches are pure white* * sand, and there is song* * and laughter in the air. The hotel we stay...

Lives By The Woods: Glorious victory. And inglorious ailments.

http://livesbythewoods.blogspot.com/2015/01/glorious-victory-and-inglorious-ailments.html

Lives By The Woods. Country Life it isn't. Although I do live in the country. Thursday, 8 January 2015. Glorious victory. And inglorious ailments. Hello, happy 2015 etcetera etcetera etcetera. To be fair, I have very little clue what day it is, never mind what year. This is down to the usual Christmas/New Year bewilderment that happens every year, but also because this year, for a change, we all got really ill over the holidays. We shopped for food, we made sure there was Champagne for Christmas Day, we ...
