Thanks Ken,
Yep going to put guttering up and pave the floor, unless I come across enough nice old floor boards.
Ive not been too cold with plenty of clothes on and a good fire going, that old shed is taking some burning. (only the rotten stuff I couldn't reuse) ;)

Oh glad you took the other lottie, you would have been mad not to. Side by side lotties, it doesn't get much better  :D.

I had the chance of half of the one next to me (above me). I'm sharing it with another lady who has half of the one below me too (Now she's on both sides of me ;D. I'm so glad I decided to take it as the waiting list is now 3 years instead of a few months  :o. Plus people can now only have a quarter plot as a starter.

[betula]

Yes,I had a second plot,side by side,now there is a waiting list.

Half derelict to waiting list over the last year.

[Al37]

Yes I am pleased as well, the only thing is before I had a layout in mind for the hen coop run and freerange area the same for the ducks an area for the fruit cages and raised beds etc etc.
Now with all that space I am bewildered oh decisions decisions ;D ;D
I have wasted half an A4 pad just trying to plan a layout ::) ::)

dont try and rush it, thats what i had trouble getting my head round, as long as you pay the rent its yours forever.
i had loads of plans but most of them changed due to time of the year other project changing etc.
im glad you took on the second plot if your stumped with what to do with it fill it with potato's

[Al37]

Still wanting to do an orchard on most of the second plot Just want to make sure I get structural things in the right place first time.
As I said earlier I am not going to rush anything Still on with the shed then comes the large greenhouse on the end of it then I will be sorting the fences then its hen and duck houses and runs
and hopefully amongst all that I will get to grow something ;D

[les65]

and hopefully amongst all that I will get to grow something ;D

[Al37]

Still plodding along, the shed is coming on nicely :)
My Mrs asked when I was taking my bed up there ;D

[mummybunny]

Funny you should say that mummybunny, My sister in law is moving house and has asked if I know anyone who wants a sofa bed. It will sit nice in front of that fire ;D
Bit of a change of plan with the construction work, I have been instructed that when the sheds finished I should do the hen house, pen and fence a free range area. This came from Mrs AL who thought I was mad when I mentioned getting a Lotty and hens etc ???
I think the bug that has definitely got me may just be rubbing on to her a bit.

My shed actually did have a makeshift bed in it when I first got the plot. Apparently my predecessor used to sleep there when he had a row with his wife. It was damp and smelly, and went on the first bonfire I had.
