    I will have another fiddle tomorrow.

    I could uncrate the brand new long bed that I won on Ebay but that was being saved for a rainy day. Maybe that rainy day's closer than I was hoping for.

    ps. The weekend's project is going to be using self levelling grout to provide a level foundation. I'm wasting time otherwise.

    Hi Michael,
    I doubt I am any where near the the front.
    Thanks that does make sense to measure it in both positions.

    You can only fit the new bed if it is painted blue.
    Cheers,
    Rod

    What! You reckon I need more blue. I reckon I've got way too much young Rod.
