Don't say anything Barry, but I'm wondering why the outer posts aren't attached to the walls

SOD that
I think there's a tick box you can make the posts anonymous with.

The post with the swing gates is attacked to the wall, on the side of the house.
The far post I left there from the last gates and is bolted to the ground next to the garage. Quite right, it wasn't bolted to the wall in the first place but it's been sturdy enough for 15 years, so I left it there.

Oh dear.

Try not to open them all at the same time. It could get a little messy


(hoping for some interesting before, during and after snaps)

Haha! Yes, imagine a garden swing with a built-in barbeque grill and TV and a couple of wooden drawers underneath and space to hang a couple of t shirts on the sides....now there's an idea!

Unfortunately that's not always possible. I assembled three items of furniture for a customer, a table, a book case and a sideboard but the parts were scattered amongst five boxes. to say these things came in bits is an understatement, there were hundreds of parts along with the usual rubbish instructions. The first part required was always at the bottom of the box so everything else had to come out first.

I like you, Bruv. You're definitely a very youthful 70. A man's man
