My garden is 25 metres long and 4 metres wide.

This means that it's just the right size for a cricket net.

taimatsu, what do you think?

Er. How much of the garden would it take up? Would it interfere with our flowerbed plans, or the shed, or the divider half-way down?

You have email.

All of it. Concrete over the entire garden and turn it into a cricket net.

:P

Not a chance, buster ;)

Umm basically yes it would interfere with all those plans - but it would be cool :)

You have a garden?

Don't shed require planning permission?

[borusa.livejournal.com]

Well...Garden is an overstatement, it's a wilderness at the moment. But yes, I have one. It's quite large, really.

[nocturnia.livejournal.com]

It is large, and it'd be cool if you could do something with it.

I was hampered by being allergic to weeds (which is a deathly response to your garden) and the full scale construction work required in the back half cos of those foundations.

Weed!!!

Hump...don't you know anything..they are not weeds they are part of an environmental wildlife garden!

Or at least that was what I got away with until Paul moved in.

I was aware of teh back door and i was aware of somethign beyond that door

Actually i assumed you had a crappy little garden like most of those houses seem to have (from past experiance

Good luck gardening in this heat :)

Shed's don't (usually) require planning permission, as they are temporary buildings. It can change by area, but I don't live in a conservation zone, so it's fine.

[calseris.livejournal.com]

Fair enough

BTW look at UKST thread that you might be interested in

What Rob said ... I'm fighting the urge to aim the desanctioning stick ...

Umm....

[nocturnia.livejournal.com]

A cricket net would actually be rather cool... but...
You do remember the foundations to the outhouse that I mentioned to you months ago when I was thinking about doing something with the garden?

They'll require real construction work before you can do anything gardeny in that bit, in a diggery type way.

Re: Umm....

[borusa.livejournal.com]

Down the back end? I can't see them requiring an actual digger, but possibly quite a lot of work.

Re: Umm....

[nocturnia.livejournal.com]

They're foundations for an outhouse, and they go up to a foot to a couple of feet above ground.

A HELL of a lot of work.

Though you're a bit more physically capable than I am, me being physically inept and broken

Re: Umm....

[borusa.livejournal.com]

Mmm. But one of these (http://www.hss.com/Grid.asp?syspage=wsClass&class=02111&Division=HIRE&Category=BREBREAKER&sysclearSQL=YES) should break them up pretty quickly!

Re: Umm....

[nocturnia.livejournal.com]

yeah.... you'll have a lot of brick dust if you break the bricks up with that :-)

Whilst I realise that this is being stricly practical, a 25 metre long garden allows for a 22 yard net, plus a yard behind for impact damage, but only a 5 metre run-up. This is okay for me, but does involve you bowling leg-spin an awful lot...

[borusa.livejournal.com]

yeah, I know. And it would cost a bomb. And taimatsu would object.

But it would be cool. I could get a bowling machine and teach myself how to bat, too.

I tried to ask Neil what planning you needed for a shed, but I forgot what he said before I typed it, so now he's peeved.
Do you remember the archery target things? They were quite cool!
