It arrived yesterday and its taller than I expected, its currently hidng from MLW in the garage until I can break the news I bought her a new Christmas tree yesterday to sweeten the way.
Its all painted except the skirting I fitted yesterday, hoping to carpet it next week. I went to our local Carpetright to look at remnants and found it was cheaper to buy a budget carpet off the roll. Unfortunately underlay is the same price so it doubles the cost but I think the extra layer of insulation justifies it. My son is giving me a tv stand but it will be garden chairs for a while.
For what its worth a carpeter i know always reckons good underlay makes an average carpet good. Worth it so far...

One of my neighbours put this out for anyone to take so I've just acquired it for my cabin. Its solid wood not veneer and the legs are wrought iron and my arms felt every bloody ounce of it carrying it back up the street. Magazines underneath, lighters, cutters and matches in the drawer.

Hut went live today electrically, big thank you to [MENTION=13430526]Johnny Thunder[/MENTION] for the advice and link on how to cut the armoured cable, it made life a lot easier!
I'll take one looking in from the outside when I've put down the carpet Gary, tomorrow or Monday I hope. My son has just given me a glass TV stand and a small bookcase for it. Picked up a 43" no name HDTV from AO.com for ?229.
43" TV in that hut! You must have the peripheral vision of an alpaca!
TV and a book case, couple of chairs (once you've got to that part of the project), plus a cigar and glass of something nice - living the dream. Something similar has to be on my bucket list.
*Apparently alpacas have particularly good peripheral vision according to my vet friend.
