Hello From the Scottish borders

Postby David » 03 Feb 2019, 21:35

Hi been lurking for a long time even before I joined!
I joined mainly as this is only site to have so much info/knowledge on workshops and the like.
have helped build a few sheds and animal shelters nothing up to the standard of those here am afraid :? but then I have rarely stayed anywhere long enough to worry..
Hoping that this year is my year to get a proper warm/dry escape :D

Hi David, and welcome from deepest Mid-Devon!

You can be sure of a warm welcome here and an amazing depth of knowledge and experience. Don't be embarrassed to ask anything and don't hesitate to ask. I did, not hesitate, that is, and built my own workshop!!

Welcome aboard David

From where on the Scottish borders are you writing? I was born in Manchester but from aged 4-8ish was raised in Lochmaben, just a couple of miles from Lockerbie.
Cheers

And a welcome from me too.

Not just workshop building around here many other diverse projects to keep us interested. What do you intend to do in yours?
I do not think therefore I do not am.

Hi David

You mentioned 'delivering' stuff. It would be very spooky if you worked for Parcelforce. And if your round was near Brampton. Too much of a coincidence though. :eusa-think:
