RIDDLES/BRAIN TEASERS 2

[looker-on]

In a later and much clearer photo I saw your struts raising the shelf Thomas.
I confess not seeing the wavy bits on the bottom of the shelf.

I 'm realising that there's been a misunderstanding here. I mistook the struts, or supports if you like, for the fascia boards (which I called gutter boards) the lower edge of which used to be wavy.
The struts did the job inside and the plain fascia boards, which I painted white, did the job outside giving the shed a more modern look.

m how to use his jack but made him do all the work. I'd given similar lessons to my 2 daughters decades back. Also the way to tighten the nuts on his spare, using leverage .... I blame the Science teachers ....

That's precisely what I taught my daughters, too. And one of them thanked me for that in her long letter for my birthday in March.

Your shed's exterior certainly looks very modern and discreely elegant Thomas.
Love the colour scheme.

I taught both my daughters to drive, initially on my mother in law's farm, on big empty paddocks. A big automatic Ford Falcon EA which was a true Lemon with design flaws galore. My daughters loved it tho and are both very good drivers now. Especially my eldest with a ridged truck licence. My youngest is the lead foot!
Like you, Thomas, I taught my daughters the basics of car maintenance.

Growing up as a teen in the back blocks of Perth, with bush all about my home, I bought my first bush basher for $9 and wrecked another before I went for my licence.
It's much stricter nowadays.
