I literally just found out about this spillage. Kinda glad it was kept a secret. :(
My wife says she didn't tell me because she knows what I would have done. :cool:
Smart lady!!:thumbsup:

All good things must come to an end. It was a long day... but we all survived.
The following day they arrived bright and early to start erecting the structure. :cool2:
