My Man-Cave (or just Shed to my missus)

Post by Donkeywalloper »

Evening all

I just popped into my M/C on return from hot day sat in office working on Legionella folder :crazy:
I haven't spent much time in M/C much lately and it shows in my cluttered and not normal work bench.
I decided to take three shots of the work area and show how its developed over a year.
Have a great evening,
DW :cheers2:

You need to add “and cursing” to your sign.

Instant coffee cannot in any way, shape or form be construed as a 'drink' - spawn of the devil that stuff.

Nice man cave but I see no well-stocked bar :cheers2:

I had the crown of my missus on my 50th. "Forced" to wear it all night. I actually really enjoyed the wearing a crown thing :banana: .

But if you look the far right, you'll see a mini fridge under the workbench. Beers and wine to help the flow. I told Mrs DW it was to store C/A at proper temperature. It worked :jd:
