It needs half a bag of perished cement in the corner - a man needs somewhere to park his arse while he's contemplating life from his shed!

I've got that all ready and waiting - it's just parked in the garage (along with everything else) whilst I try to finish this bugger off

Wow Ian - can't wait for stop-frame movie posting - you realise this is only the beginning - you will now want more, more, ever bigger, ever more de-luxe - just say no..... you're on a slipppery slope.

The amount of time it's taking, I'm not sure that there is a business model in there for me

Actually I think that this is my fightback for not being 'allowed' to do more work on the extension we had built last year - the SO has no faith in me ...

as promised my pykie shed built from bits and bobs salvaged for sweet FA
all i bought was 4 bags of dust and the tile battens,whole thing all my own work <gulp>

needs rendering etc ,the last piccy is the M/H going down to the 1938 air raid shelter,10' by 7' room with 6' ceiling,floor is 10 ' below the floor of the shed so my beer should ok down there if the luftwaffe start up again

Looks sweet. I love the 'basement' - I've left a gap in my reinforcement in case I ever want to dig out an inspection pit, but I don't think I'll be putting another room down there!

A fairly sedate weekend, this one - did some stuff other than shedding. Still, managed to add some extra roof timbers and a reclaimed Velux:

Query: when attempting a job tht would be best with two people, does it take one person 2, 3 or 4 times as long (if not more)? All that fetching of stuff that could be passed, clamping up that could have been held, etc ...

Plus the extra pay packet :;):

Ooh, me back! Ah, me knees. Thought I'd done all the digging when I laid the base. Nope, forgot about the 30-40m service trench. The Spousal Overunit didn't want too much mess made of the lawn so it was 'surgical precision' with the 'masking tarps' and backfilling as I went along:

Shingles fixed to one side of the roof. Still needs the other side, ridge piece and fascia boards to complete the effect:
