Just before Christmas Eve last year after many days and nights of very heavy rain the driveway that runs to the rear of our garden started to collapse.
Spent this weekend digging then wacking down over a Ton of MOT type 1 plus a load of concrete (thanks to my Girlfriend Helen for much appreciated help).

Back is painful from all the lifting of soil and sub-base material plus would of prefered to have spent the £150 in materials on a wheel refurb for the S2.

Oh well hopefully all will be sorted by next weeekend which will enable me to get the cars out of the garage.

The drive has room for 5+ cars so if it happens again then a JCB+Driver will be required!

Hi Kieren
Yes very hard graft especially when you have lower back issues all the more painful. My Neighbour is hepling me this Sunday to re-lay the large 600x600mm slabs as long as its not lashing down with rain.
I try to keep the garage as tidy as possible, when I did my welding repairs last year it was nice being able to place the S2 in the centre of the garage and having loads of room to get around her.

I meet would be something to look forward to Kieren.
Hoping to make the run out to Burghley House on April 13.

Order a skip Kieran and have a good sort out and get the TVR tucked up in that garage!
