No problem munchy. Made lots of progress: Had Friday off work and also had a friends son labouring for a couple of days so I ache slightly less than I would have done otherwise!
This is the front elevation:
The ridge beam from the end of the new summerhouse.:
Ridgebeam from the garage. You can see both king beams here. I've made them from 150x50 rather than 100x50 because I had so many offcuts lying around. The notch in the king beams is only 50mm. The photos make it seem as though the battens go straight through it, but in fact the battens are cut:
Another two from the new summerhouse pointing back at the garage:
I'm not thrilled at the way the king common rafter meets the ridge plate, but I wanted the hip rafters to be tight in to the last pair of common rafters and didn't have the foresight/experience to cut the ridge short...
