My shed was entered in the Kitchen Garden Magazine competiton in 2008, and all I had to do was submit several photos and write a short spiel on why my shed was different/special. I presume you are talking about a more local competiton, so you can make up your own rules I guess! ;D
If it's not pouring with rain, I'm either in the garden or at the lottie! Probably still there in the rain as well TBH....🥴

That is such a fantastic shed Deb.  Like something out of  fairy story.  Excellent.

Oh wow! That is an amazing shed! How incredible to be able to make something like that - your OH must have been very proud after that.

How fab is that!!! Must be a lovely place to chill and survey all your hard work!
As for marking criterion - I guess originality, craftsmanship/ingenuity, functionality (? don't think that's a real word!) of interior-(shelving solutions etc) erm...that's all I have!
Don't throw paper away. There is no away.

I'd like to share my interview with my local paper when I came second in the National Shed of the Year Competition 2008, complete with a recital of the sonnet that I wrote it.

Ohh..lovely  :D
Please don't be offended by my nickname 'Mortality'
As to its history it was the name of a character I played in an online game called 'Everquest'
The character 'Mortality Rate' was a female Dark Elf Necromancer, the name seemed apt at the time and has been used alot by me over the years.

Unwashed - how lovely to meet you in the flesh, so to speak!

Your shed is wonderful, as is your ShedSonnet. 

You came across as a total Allotment Anorak - brilliant!
