Too true. I would love to ship the Grenadier to OZ and do a big tour.

There are many members from the forum I would welcome with open arms and a generous hug.
Others may see the wrong end of...........

Over the first week of December we had many guests staying in vans and motorhomes or renting Airbnb nearby for my birthday
The idea with the shed and the concrete hardstand is that they can park in our yard on the concrete, use the bathroom in the shed and the BBQ's to enjoy their stay.
Hopefully Grenadier owners will also use it on their way to Fraser Island and up north.

Australia is on our wish list vacation spot so maybe some day we shall meet ... sans Grenadier though. I can't imagine it would fit under the seat back in front of me on the plane.

Always a spare bed for a good guest

An annual Grennie 'convention' at Fraser Island might be a "goer" (= distinct possibility) as they say!

Make it 3rd week in August and I won’t need to head up separately.
What am I saying, did I just try and talk my way out of a second trip to Fraser.
Cancel that, anytime but August is good for me.

My son-in-law is a long time Cairns resident with long experience in the Cape. He's offering a guided tour of Lakefield NP nxt yr when I arrive in the Grenadier!

So many options
Imagine if we were buying a Mr Blobby SUV

Finally ordered the Shed for my Grenadier today.

I am getting serious "shed envy". There is no way I can contemplate something like that at home. Neither the (now sold) Land Rovers or the Grenadier would fit in my garage, the little sports cars would complain!

I'm going to blame the high cost of building land in the UK and living in an estate house built in 1995/6.

In our "neck of the woods" to get round planning law and have it declared "Permitted Development" on a farm it would have to be declared an "Agricultural Building" and certainly not a shed...

Here it is a shed, sadly not the largest in the street, but it will be the best when I am finished.

What is that beautiful red machine???

I think it's a hanger not a shed. @emax could park one of his light aircraft in it

You would have to get landing clearance first

When I saw your car collection I actually shed a tear for poor Jeremy.

Pun intended.

If you can put in a 12m long thing and use a transport roller to move it sideways and in any direction, yes.

But to be clear: the aircrafts I fly do not belong to me, but are the property of the my aero-club. But they are "Echo"-class airplanes (German classification up to MTOM 2000 Kg), no lightweights (MTOM 600 Kg).

I started my career with the department of civil aviation looking after nav aids at Sydney airport

Ah, The Good Ole' Days - that's why you want this hanger for your Grenadier.
