That's bl00dy brilliant

I like the tiled garage floor too.

One question - I don't see any form of beer cooling equipment Don't get me wrong I love a few glasses of red wine, but after a days work on the car I would need to start with a cold beer or 3

There is a ledge to left of the bbq with what looks like a cold water feed going into it, i'm sure you could put an extra side onto the ledge and make a sink! fill with cold water and that would be enough to cool however many bottles you could fit !

that is sometihg to serioulsy consider. when I was in Brazil, just up the road, I worked out I could sell everything I owed in UK, stick money in the bank and live off of the interest for the rest of my life without having to work - it would pay for food and accomodation but not much left for toys - that was in 2000.

I went in brazil on holidays twice.
I know many people who sell evrything and put a seaside bar in brazil, thease country have 5000 km of beach !!!!! you can live with shorttrausers eating shrimps and drinkin beers allways.
I know of some europeans who buy a little hotel near the beach and live there very very happy.

I don't see much work happening in that garage. Kind of like a lot of local specialised mechanics and engineers. Loads of coffee and tea, and maltese bread ... and you'll have to wait for weeks on end for your bit to be fabricated.
