Everything. As It Happens.
Cool!
New detention center. Oh hang on, they have those ‘offshore’ on Naru.
Love it.
Remember that house on Grand Designs made out of shipping containers? So cool.
Do you remember the houseboat made out of salvaged… stuff. It was a disaster. Kevin wasn’t very impressed.
That container house was excellent though. Isn’t it somewhere up in Norn Ireland?
Yep, up in Derry I think.
You watch Grand Designs too Mildred?
* wistful sigh *
A dream of mine to build something similar. Season 14, Episode 4.

Each container weighs 2.3 tons, adding up to 20.7 tons in total. That paint must be really heavy.
I’d say there’s some major steel work holding it together, resisting torsion and the stresses of an occasional typhoon. (they will twist around the long axis)
