So where I had a hole in the external wall for my car to get into the garage, when I filled in the hole with framing, weatherboard and drywall during a conversion, I didn't do a "bracing calculation". Silly me I though a hole had ZERO bracing and my infill would be a lot stronger than the current rating, but according to "the Book" the air was calculated, whereas my infill could weaken the structure.
The same thing was argued when I installed an extra roof support post as I didn't want to rely on the "certified" system, so I got a kicking from council for adding more strength to my garage.

| Old (48 years old) configuration - hole where the garage door is |

| New configuration but more prone to wind shear even though the hole has never failed in 48 years???? |
First to the Doctors, but had to book a slot in another hour, so COFFEE time :)
Sorry, no make up except lip stick, got a busy day planned after lunch, so just a coffee, read the paper and headed back to the doctors.
As I drive in to the doctors car park, I recognized a work colleague at the next shop, but like most people and lucky for me, he was to busy to notice me (I hope).
Turns out I have Tennis elbow after using the post hole borer about 6 weeks ago.
The Doctor didn't even blink when I saw him, probably seen a few cross dressers before - or maybe he remembered me from my last visit :)
