        Stop your glazing and get those panels out where they're of some use you naughty boy!

        I don't really have much of a shed, just a deck box at the back and a small cabinet type upright.

            They were organised until i had the kitchen re done a year ago when they became a temporary dumping ground and havnt had the energy to sort then out again yet. They are on my never ending to do list

              Okay, here they are. The box has 4 bags of fertilizer so nothing to see there.

              The shed, well, I put the top down on my mustang and brought it home as a passenger. Got all sorts of queer looks during the trip. When I got home I realized why. It looked like I was driving round with my own portable privy!

                Would love a wooden shed like yours @Dips with the big Windows.
                Very practical @CanadianLori , neat and tidy too!
                The shed we have is attached to the house and is such a tip.. I'll shame myself tomorrow it's a bit too dark now!

                  Not my shed , but things spring to mind
                  1. Too much time on hand ?
                  2. Too much money ?
                  3. Glad he/she/it doesn't live next door to me :biggrin:

                    Zigs.... your pill box is awesome! a LOT of potential there buddy!!!

                    Dips what can i say you have one very,very,very beautiful garden & shed my friend, has to be one of the nicest ive laid my eyes on, a right little haven away from the everyday stresses :) i love those windows too, thats one thing i wouldnt mind in my shed is a couple of windows, but my shed is windowless :(
                    tad messy inside lol :D i tend to keep on mine weekly with a clean, if i let it go a few weeks, that turns into a few months, then its a weekender job to sort it all out haha

                    CanadianLori you crack me up lol, i can just imagine you cruising down the freeway in your mustang and mini shed riding shot gun lol. nice, neat and practical tho :)

                    Lynd, look forward to seeing your shed, its not too dark really, your going to have a tidy up arnt you! lool :D

                    Harry thats crazy! lol, i do like the log burner tho :)


                    well today was very long for me today! went out to B&Q, got myself a new pack of nails and a pack of half eye hooks, to do a few small additions to the shed today, then we went to go to the pumkin festival at victoria country park, which was a bad mistake, we were sat in grid locked traffic for near on 3 hours, it was insane, like every person in the UK came to this, i badly wanted to take the kids but i just had enough and turned around and went to a local farm where the kids went pumpkin picking, so they were happy, next year im going to head there about an hour before it openes as it was just insane today.

                    not been in long, so no work will now be done on the shed today, gutted, so ill have to add my pics tomorrow

                        we have a fairly good size one. keeps the ridding mower in it, the push mower, the log splitter, the cart that gets hooked behind the tractor to get the leaves. bikes, gardening supplies, cat carriers, lawn air raters, rototiller, snow shovels, leaf blower, shelves of garden liquid things, shelves of small garden tools. Tried to do all this from memory, OH yes, and folded up covers for all the deck furniture and swing,--have to use that soon. No pic. sorry, it has two doors, and 4 windows. rafters to hang stuff on. that all I can recall. the color matches the house.

                            nice one Zigs, are those solar panels expensive? is there much wiring involved?

                            wow sounds like you have a small apartment for a shed! sounds real nice tho, and a ride on lawn mower....now you are showing off! LOL :D :D

                            Not too bad, paid about £100 each, but I think I got the bigger one off Amazon for £50.

                            Wirings quite easy, batteries are a bit pricey (leisure batteries) but once you've got it set up it's hassle free :)

                              Thats not bad at all, so im guessing the solar panels feed the suns power into the leisure battery and tops the battery up daily right? its bad if those batteries completely drain right? is there a way of fitting a charge meter to the battery, to see how much juice is getting fed into it, that would be really cool...
