Every saga has a beginning...

As of today I can finally say it is 100% finished inside and out! There have been a few annoying issues to sort out, namely the gutters and drains on the outside which were slightly complicated as we had to negotiate with our neighbours over the soakaway position, the architect didn't think we'd need one as the original drains just went to ground, but the building inspector disagreed 🤦‍♂️ But anyway it's all done now, and no more builders! Here's a couple of before and after shots of the outside and inside:

It's hard to believe it's the same space, from a damp old stable to a lovely warm annexe, which is much better insulated than our house is! Over the moon with it, it's just going to take the rest of my life to pay it off :LOL:
 
Well worth the money and effort.
Yes it cost a bit, but think what it will add to the property value.😀
 
So this is where I've got to with the collection display, even though these two book cases are twice as much storage as I had in my old office, I already don't have enough space 😬 I made a conscious decision that this room wasn't just going to be a museum, because as nice as that would be, I have to use it for work and also want to use it for gaming, both of which trump looking at toys. Still, half a book case isn't so bad, I just need to have a think about what I want in there. I am also toying with a smaller wall cabinet for my loose figures, but don't want to make the room look too cluttered, and really I only have one wall to play with as the back wall by the stairs gets battered by the sun all day due to the window in the roof.

Still I'm certainly not complaining, just need to decide what from my collection I want to display!

Nice and neat. How about one of Drew's display cabinets for the loose figures? Would look amazing in there 😍
