Garden shed!

didnt know where to post, but i wanted to post as am over excited to have a shed!!! really want it tonight, as bought a 2nd hand one, in rugby, but i have to wait till i find someone who can collect it so im sad, i want it now :D dont know why i am so excited about this shed lol i need to steal a van :gnthb:

 

Shame you're just a bit far away from me, otherwise I'd have done it. Couldn't you hire a van? They are only about £35 for half a day.

 

i didnt know where to post it, and randomly wanted to tell everyone that i keep talkin about sheds and have been on a mad mission to get one lol

yeh wish one of you was local lol was going to hire a van but they wanted alot of money down, 150 i think, so thought id find another option, roll on the shed, over excited, i would carry it home if i could lol

 

i have wanted one for years, but not felt desperate for one, i cant wait, feel like its xmas lol its 8 and a half foot by 6 foot, should be a ok size for my first shed? wont have many tools etc as i am a single woman that just owns a lawnmover, and drills and basics lol

wany my shed now :( are they easy to put up? obviously it has been up before

 

it comes with a floor, i dont know what prep i need, its going on a concrete area at bottom of garden, and he said all i need is nails to put together, it has already been taken apart as he wanted the room, its 90quid

 

When I've hired vehicles in the past, if you give them credit details, even if you are paying in cash for the rental, then they don't take a deposit. The logic being if you use the van in a ram raid or drive it into the sea, they'll just bill your card.

 

Well if your anything like me i usually buy the stuff then ask other half how its fitting in the car

Am also in Rugby and hope none of my darling children have sold you my shed for extra pocket money lol

hmmmm ...... wonders outside to check its still there ........

 

shed is home, no messing about lol i have no patience, i have to admit i am not over keen on the shed, but my builder who picked it up with me thinks i got a bargain for what i paid, i dont like the colour, the paint needs re doin as it hasnt been done in a while so most has faded and its dark brown :( the one colour i didnt want lol is it easy enough changing the colour, or will i have to stick with this sort of dark shade, i ideally wanted that varnished wood look rather than painted brown lol but suppose for 2nd hand i cant be over choosy when price is ok, shed looks ok condition, needs to put new pane of glass in, as one fell out on way home lol and replacement of part of felt, i hope i havent gone and bought something **** out of random impatience for a shed lol, im sure when its been painted and treated better it will look fine, i will show a pic of it 2moz when it is up, just dont laugh and me buying something bad if i have lol

 

its going on concrete and it is reasonably level as level as my eye can tell, isnt all over the place, and there was 2 sheds down before, but neither had a floor lol. i think the shed will need a little tlc as not been cared for enough lol lack of keeping stained etc i will look after it, looks bloody huge :O

 

well i didnt have a other half to do that lol so i sweet talked the builder instead lol, but he didnt mind helping which was nice nice to see nowadays how people can still help each other, even though he doesnt know me lol

i just hope in the morning when i see shed in the light that i dont think, why did i buy that heap lol :dh:

 

now i have my shed, and dont like it lol the colour, what colour it has is brown but it hasnt been treated in a long while, so what is the best thing i do from here? also now it has brown on it, will i have to paint it brown or shall i do it same colour as fence panels which is green? i wanted a pine looking shed, but i havent got that lol, advice would be good as feel a fool for buying it :( hopefully its not as bad as i think lol
