    My Bench is under the windows I get the summer sun after 10 in the morning. I have the option to sit side on to the window though as the bench is L shaped.

      My workroom actually deserves the title 'man-cave' - well, almost. The windows are North facing, so no direct sunlight, and about five feet from the neighbours' house wall, so not a lot of indirect light, either. And it's the Lake District, so sunshine is a rare commodity at the best of times.

      In truth, it's not as bad as it sounds. Light levels are low but they're very constant, which is a lot better than wild fluctuations. And I simply rely on good artificial lighting, which is easy to sort these days.

        I am a bit OCD about being tidy. I drive the missus crazy at times but we will have been married 50 years next month so she must have accepted it. It's a big room which my wife shares to use for her sewing. The photo was taken just after we fitted new Ikea cabinets all along one wall so was even tidier than usual.

          How do you manage to find anything when it's not in a big heap on one side of the bench like mine lol.

            Agreed a plan for my garage room with my builder mate, he's also fitting new French Dr's and decking to the back of the hour. So should be ready in about 6 weeks or so, next a big skip filling contest. Unless this bl**dy pain stops me!
