Shed Life

aussie-shed

summerhouse

Last August demolition man removed the old rotting wooden shed which was sandwiched between the garden wall and the house.

Due to my indecision, snowstorms, bad weather and other factors, it took a while to order a new shed. I was always concerned that we had a petrol mower in a wooden shed next to the house (Guy Fawkes Night and all that) so we decided to buy a metal one.  It’s an Aussie-made tin shed so I’m delighted …. I need to find one of those kangaroo warning signs!

After a re-jig, we can now access shed city. The potting shed is sorted and old book cases have been moved into the Aussie one. Due to general house re-organisation we tried to get a single bed in there too but without luck.

So, now there’s a bed in the summerhouse and, as I had a headache,  I had a little sleep in there only yesterday afternoon – it’s a lovely retreat!

    Wow, I’m very envious – it looks fab. I may have to post a pic of the inside of our shed (squashed between house and fence as well!) just to show the contrast. LOL. You must be so pleased with it.

    The bottom photo isn’t the interior of the Aussie shed but is of the summerhouse…. may not have made that clear

    Shed City=Aussie Shed, Potting Shed and Summerhouse (3 different buildings!)
