heating weather

 Very hot today and the rest of this week and beyond, this type of weather can make your decking boards shrink in the width, so that gap you started with gets bigger.

The amount of gap is a choice you make, but its best when building the structure to leave around 1 to 2mm only, then if it shrinks the gap does not become too large.

Shrinkage normally only happens in the width of timber, the fence slate on a close boarded type fence can do the same.

Spring time

  The sun awakes in a sleepy stretch,  Yawning warmth on a winter's wretch.  Birdsong flutters on the breeze,  Waking trees from slumber...
