God I miss my sheds I have had at the last 2 houses used to have zip ties from the beams as impromptu workstands. Doing maintenance in the hall or on the patio is just not the same.

All my maintenance/fettling is done in the kitchen, yet another throwback to my motorcycling days.

Nowt wrong with it Tdr1nka but slurping on a brew in your shed is something else.
my brothers shed has the door at the end of the longer side instead in the 'end of the shed' as i'd term it
its an absolute pain to get bikes in and out unlike the shed at my friends where i stayed in the summer with the door dead centre in the end (beach hut style) where we could get 5 bikes and a lawn mower in easily and sort through bikes to an extent.
best way of locking them up would be a huge metal bar fixed to the wall so that the easiest way of stealing the bikes is to cut a huge bit of shed which would remain attached to bikes.

By the time you have 5 bikes in the shed - if they were all locked together there is no way they would be able to get them out the door
but I wouldn't mind having something secure to lock them to. Problem is that our shed is getting on abit now....

Man, I'd love a decent shed. Has anyone else had a flick through this?

domtyler said:Why have you got two mowers? One for the front lawn and one for the rear maybe?
one to go up, the other to go down.
I dunno, its my Nans shed.

I keep my bikes in my passage (of course)
Which is covered. And secure. Nobody gets anywhere near my passage unless i invite them.

I'd love to live in a shed! Honestly!
With my favourite smell, linseed oil (from my cricketing days) plus the smell of apples, pears, gooseberries, rhubarb, potatoes etc.
Have a nice comfy chair (preferably a rocking chair) a log burner, small fridge, kettle, outside lav. and a comfy bed! Wonderful!
