I used to have a shed


I used to have a shed here, but the winds the other week took their toll and I thought ah I'll fix it then changed my mind and knocked it down.Not putting another one up keeping the ground to make a bigger patio/sitting area.
Was going to just block pave it but due to the fact have the Roads manhole in that area, I have decided we will reuse the 3x2 slabs and mix them with pavers. Will show you are the work progress's.
See what happens when I get off work early.

Re: I used to have a shed


Do you ever sit still Kazz?

That has certainly opened up your garden, will look forward to seeing pics of the finished project

One question though, what have you done with all the stuff that you kept in the shed?

Re: I used to have a shed


Good question Mags!
That looks nice already though Kazz - is it a sunny spot?
You'll have to get a temporary hide to watch your birds though!

Its all gone into the other shed the brick built one on the other side. its opened up the garden such a lot I am not replacing it. I was going to get a bigger shed but decided to stay with open. The fence is now temporary - I will be looking at something else but want to keep the dogs down the house/patio end the two of them could wreck the garden in seconds. And I am not having that as much as I love them.

Didn't take energy just - a sledgehammer and a bit of will power. My Dad has made me a 3ftx2ft template of a slab same thickness so I can get the level right without lifting and laying and lifting slabs clever man.
I know it will look different having slabs and pavers but it gives me a chance to put a tree and maybe a couple of climbers in the pockets for planting.
