I want the guided tour too, but can live without the erection. Yer missus would kick my butt!

Yours is one of only a few that she could actually reach too!

your renovations put mine to shame

mine usually consists of

1 get decorator in

2 order furniture

3 let missus do finishing touches

4 moan she has spent too much

Woah, that's one hell of a 'just a shed'

Looks great!! I'm afraid I couldn't fill it with ****e though. I'd want to turn it into an extra room to get away from Leon in

It's still going to be quite tight bringing the bike in down the side no?

Looks fab though - your bike will be happy and love it's new home!

Holy thread resurection

Well we have been busy

Whilst we got the summerhouse put up, the bottom of the garden was still a bit of a tip with just loads of earth down there so we decided to get to work on it whilst trying not to spend too much money.

We started by getting our two remaining sleepers (left over from the summerhouse base) to use as edging to the lawn. Had to cut one in half which was a fair task but got there in the end. Grabbed some of the underlay stuff (whatever it's called) from my mum and got that laid down...

Once that was down our grand total spend came to £88 getting this gravel in...

And then on to today, where we started to paint some old garden furniture to sit on the gravel. I also grabbed some spare slabs from our patio and made a path to the summerhouse. Have repainted the main patio and chair arms as well...

All that's left to do down there now is a get a gate out on to the lane and finish that pathway. Also need to bring the lawn back to life.....somehow.

Looking good, I love the little pathway.

Lawn - lots and lots of watering & lawn feed. Mine all died off last year. You need to water the damn thing every day, especially with it being quite a young lawn.

Looks great guys

We've just bought a load of those chippings for our shed base. They look rather nice!

It's typical how grass will grow like no tomorrow and look really healthy in a field in the middle of nowhere, or in the middle of the A2 - but the second you put it anywhere near a garden it just shouts out for attention and TLC

Garden is looking really nice!

Loving the paint job.
