On the allotment, a couple of families of mice! They have made a meal of my fleece!! >:( Oh well, guess they were cosy over the winter. Also, netting, bamboos, wheelbarrow and various tools, chairs, stove, various pots and seed trays that should come home for re-using, and most importantly, my restocked first aid kit with plasters, germaline, antiseptic spray and waspeze!

At home, bikes, pogo sticks, paddling pools, buckets and spades, rubber dinghy, garden furniture, huge array of pots, tubs and seed trays and the lord and masters garden related power tools, like the lawn mower, hedge trimmer, strimmer, rotovator etc!

Another car-shed here I'm afraid.....but I'm hoping for my birthday......

Anyway boot of car holds at the moment - wellies, kneeling pad, fork, spade, bucket (to carry all the little bits from car to plot - inside bucket is: plant labels, pen, string, scissors, plastic bags, half packets of seeds, trowel, two bits of wood and some string for line marking & gloves), cloche rescued from wind the other day, roll of fleece, box of BF&B, box of lime, first aid kit (shamefully old and in need of updating!) and try as I might not to let it in - soil!

I'm changing my car hopefully for a mini soon so OH will just have to buy me a shed!

There's a shed on my lottie from a previous tennant. She's got loads of tools, onion strings, a camping stove, gardening boots & 2 deck chairs in it. I wish she'd come and collect it all as I can't use the shed until it's gone!!!!!! :( So I too am carrying my tools back and forth from the car at every visit !!!

Daisy_Jane · « **Reply #11 on:** March 31, 2006, 12:16:12 »

The usual tools, wellies, trug, step ladder from when we put the shed up... biscuit tin with assorted seeds ... cardboard boxes.. pair of waterproof trousers so I can potter about the lottie at lunch time and not mess up my work trousers.

I am working on a rouse to get the camping stove and table up to the lottie; need to make sure I put them back before we next go on hols though! ;D

But also the usual tools, wheelbarrow, folding chair, plastic bottles, some window frames, netting.....

It has no door, so not much of value, but here goes:
Plastic tub holding canes and sticks, plastic tub holding pieces of metal tubing that might come in handy.
3 sacks of ericaceous compost for when I get round to planting blueberry bushes, covered with black plastic sheeting.
Old bamboo blind that I thought might come in handy for something, 2 very large pots, plastic Wickes bucket.
A plastic shelf unit holding a plastic trough filled with very cheap secateurs, plastic trowel and hand fork, bits of string, scissors, hooks etc; sack of chicken pellets, lime, firelighters, more plastic sheeting, empty compost bags, nailbrush, aluminium basket thing filled with rusty nails and small bits of wire.
A table about 2 ft square, wedged behind it a large reel of very tough wire that I can't cut, under it a bucket with sieved wood ash, wedged by the side of it an old rake, old broom, old weed wizard. Plastic patio chair with crack.
Suspended from roof/walls: 2 wicker baskets, plastic riddle, small rectangular sieve, wire mesh bucket with handle, clock that doesn't work, towel, rags, plastic bags, bits of string and wire.
Think that's it.
