Our 2 would 100%, be over the edge of that
I'd have probably fallen off it myself by now.
Lol, I for some reason though Barry's child was much younger, and always didn't get 'Weins'!

That's seriously cool garage. Would be nice to just run some timber fencing and planting to mask it to keep the natural look. Not that you asked for opinions

I like that idea.
Considered ranch fencing but we thought it would act as a climbing frame. Dressing it up with hedge or ivy is definitely cool & within keeping of the style

Good thing this isn't in the garage thread. Wholly deserving of it's own thread and my word. Looks great with the finishing touch

Just read through this thread.
Holy toledo!!!! That's some house and the garage is a thing of beauty!!
Are you still sat-diving? I've seen what you guys do - and yeah, you more than earn your money!
Hat off to you fella, you put the graft in and you get the rewards.
Need an evening shot with the doors open, lights on and 3 bays of cars

Hey @Rigger thanks for the kind words.
This is the best line up the garage has seen yet. Not sure if it will be beaten
Haha thanks, I did my last sat in 2018.. that sh*t was heavy duty

I'm sure you're glad you're out the sat diving game now.
My first ROV job was Diver Obs on the Welly, really enjoyed watching you guys do your thing subsea.
Health to enjoy the house, garage, car and of course family!
Love the house and garage @BarryPort!
Had to google what Sat diving is (probably a lot more to it then what i read), sounds very challenging and dangerous. Fair play!
Were you living below the sea for periods at a time? Briefly read an article there where a guy was living in a 'metal tube', 20 feet long and 7 feet in diameter with 5 other guys!

He’s like Joe Pasqulie at the best of timesBarry - you want to tell them about your squeaky voice once you're 'at depth'?
Mental, i wouldn't cope to well with diving that kind of depth, let alone the claustrophobic feeling of being confined.
What sort of work is it you do down there?
I'll give that a watch, thanks!

Seen that before it was made a public film. As usual it started doing the rounds, leaking into the public domain and Bibby realised they had to do something.
As ever, you certainly earned your pay when you see that film.
I remember watching one diver walking with a manifold cover supported by the ships crane. Thing must have weighed 20-25 tons, and he's got hold of it, to just steady it as it was moved from wet storage to fit back onto the manifold. Must have been 10m x 15 type of thing.
We were sat following the diver, and the cover was that big, that the rest of it just disappeared into the gloom.
Hat off to you guys - you got my respect 100% and then some!
