You drive in keeping close to the right - driver's side...stop with the front no plate in contact with the end wall...under the bench top (can't park backwards) ...then you scrunch across to the left side (passenger's) and that door can open enough to squeeze out...assisted by grab handle on left wall.  Garage access door is on that side hence the method in the madness. 

There's just enough space behind the car to get there to close the roller door from inside.

As long as it works alls well.doesn't "need" to be bigger....

Paul, you wouldn't need to put any weight on!   Perhaps a few less beers.... to be shure to be shure.

Oh, and is white wine fattening? 

I was only askin'

Nah, I'm not trying to turn you into a teetotaller or anything, but speaking of extra weight, my doctor has referred me to a physiotherapist to custom design an exercise regime around my disabilities... crook back, bung hips and knees, etc. 

Looks like I'll be spending a bit of time in the pool.   And my [other] incentive....  lots 'n lot's o' bikini girls.

Couple more pictures. The exposed aggregate concrete of the verandah etc has been sealed showing the true colour.

The sealant really brings out the colour of the stones. Looks killer

We now have a new driveway.
