I don't know much about sheds but it does remind me of a story an old school friend told me the other day.

I was just buying a newspaper when I saw this Rolls Royce pull up outside the newsagents. To my surprise an old mate got out.

"Wow. You've done well for yourself." I said through thinly-veiled, green eyes. "How did you get to drive that?"

"Well, just after we left school I spotted an old kennel in a front garden." he started. " I gave the guy a fiver for it, did it up a bit, new felt roof etc. and flogged it for a score."

"So you made a mint in dog kennels?" I asked increduously.

" Well not really. You see a couple of weeks later I saw an old shed in the small ads for twenty quid. Did it up, new felt roof, sold it for fifty notes. Sorted."

"So you made your fortune in sheds?"

"No sod the sheds. My uncle died wo weeks later and left me five million!"

Sorry. ;D

No sorry Lorna. As a Man of Kent/Kentish Man (never know which) I can confirm wealthy relatives are a bit thin on the ground in these parts.
