Really do like the colour.

 

To be honest, the photos don't do it justice. 

 

Thanks for your comment though

I pulled the mini out to turn it around today so I could do the other door shut.

 

Couldn't resist a couple of pics

Looks great!

 

I see that 12" wheel you mentioned before.

 

Did you look to see what type it is?

I've read this over the last few days and very glad to see some paint on it! Shame about the gazebo not working for the respray and the problem with the primer reacting badly!

The new gazebo may work in the spring when the weather is better, or I may set the gazebo up in a mates double garage and heat the garage and paint it in there.

 

Anyway, onto todays efforts. I've painted the nearside door shuts.

The plan is to leave these a couple of weeks then very carefully fit the doors. I still need to paint the inside of the boot lid, and the boot shut area, but I need to flat back the primer on the boot lid first which is tomorrows job

I don't think it was. I think it was her birthday the day she proposed too.

 

The worst of it is, I didn't say yes. I apologised for not proposing to her

Obviously eventually we must've agreed to marry, as we're now married.

 

I was drunk and dressed as a pirate at the time
