If the summerhouse started
the day half-built, by lunchtime it was back to three-eighths, as after pulling
my hair out for an hour puzzling how to attach the hinges in such a way that
the doors could operate effectively, I had to dismantle pieces constructed according
to the instructions but clearly preventing the doors being attached in such a
way that they could open and close; as for the doors, the majority of the
sixteen pieces of mitred beading fixing in the windows needed re-engineering to
fit together (if you are not going to mitre at 45° why bother?) but eventually they were ready to hang,
miraculously filling the gap formed by the adjusted frame – and with a few barrel
bolts added we were more or less complete.
