Sheds

[Kazz]

Well they say sheds say a lot about you, but what do you keep in your shed? I am having a shed YES another shed I have two already, plus a storage box thing thats about 2ft deep 5ft wide and 4ft high with double doors but I have so much stuff I need another room to put things


What do you keep in your shed? A friend uses his as a place to build his models you know soldiers etc, and other uses his to keep his model railway/train set and a close friend uss her shed to paint from.

I don't do anything like that but I do like my shed, especially spring and summer and autumn I do my potting up for the plant tubs in there etc etc etc usually the floor space taken up by the dogs and Oscar on a shelf Cleo has sense and stays in the warm.

Haven't got a shed here


But the garage is oversized (not quite double, but big) so all the rubbish/garden stuff is in there.
There's also tons of sports kit (OH), exercise bike, stepper and glider (OH) (and he uses them), my Mum's old sideboard which came from my late Great Aunt but doesn't fit Mum & Dad's tiny little house. Doesn't fit ours either . The removal men shrouded it in a special paper stuff which they use when things go into storage and said it should be OK. I haven't been brave enough to peek under, so i don't know. We really ought to sell it but mum has a sentimental attachment
What else? - bins of bird food, a dog crate (folded) a dog stair gate, 2 cat carriers, bags of kindling, the overflow fridge, the overflow freezer..............
It's pretty useful!

I miss my old shed, with the sloping glass front, so it could pretend to be a greenhouse in the summer!

Just have a small shed that has all the old tins of paint, a few tools, lawnmower, strimmer etc, cat carry box, nothing exciting really!!

We haven't got a shed either but have a large storeage box similar to this but with doors that open out....

I keep most of the big gardening stuff in there.

Shed, maybe an overstatement.......wooden panels kept together by rusting old screws, with a roof thats lets in more water than what flows under london bridge, well that might be more accurate
Its not that bad really, just old....VERY old. As for its contents, bails of hay and straw for the rabbits, woodshavings also for the buns;spare rabbit hutches;a few old tins of paint;some mismatched wellies;lawnmower, strimmer, shears, saws and various garden tools, some old latern thingys, horse reigns (dont ask me what for!);a rocking chair that squeks when you sit on it and uhm i think theres a few old hessian sacks in oh and some bulbs and seeds and things that have been waiting too be planted for more years than i have fingers too count upon

We've got 2 sheds. In the 'top' shed, the one at the top of the garden we keep the kiddies toys, bikes and footballs etc along with the shears, broken lawn mower, couple of boxes of wall tiles nad some of OH's mechanics tools.

In the 'bottom' shed, the one that's on my patio has the rest of OH's mechanics tools, parts washer, our bikes altho mine hasn't seen the light of day for about 2 years

Once the garage is up we should be able to get rid of one of the sheds and use the other one as a playhouse for the kids

No sheds here either; garden too small. We have 3 cellars tho - one is damp and lets in water and used to be the old 'L'-shaped coal cellar - that has all the non-rusting stuff and stuff that can't be damaged by water.

What used to be the old pantry is the tool 'shed' it houses all of hubby's 'gubbins' and paint + gardening stuff such as wellies.

The 3rd cellar is under the bathroom and is low and large and holds all ladders, bikes, lawnmower, barrow and extensive odds and ends of wood that hubby holds on to ad infinitum
