Living in a Shed During Construction?

Well they said that as long as we decommission the shed as soon as we get our occupancy certificate then it's all good with our council. So it looks like…

I'm in the same boat, 5.5x4.5m.

Do you mind me asking how much your theatre seating cost? It won't show me anything on the iPhone
