Title: shed wanted
Post by: amphibian on August 06, 2005, 09:26:42
I really desparately need a small shed, but have already spent more than I wanted getting things going (weed control fabric cost me a lot).

I don't have much to swap, though I can offer a car full of well rotted leaf mold, and I could chuck something else in too, name your desires.

I'm in Tunbridge Wells but am happy to drive a little way.

have you tried your local freecycle, amphibian?

go to www.freecycle.org and look for a local one to you.
the london one, for instance, is a yahoo group - but other local groups may be run differently.
as the name suggests, people offer their stuff for free - to prevent it going to landfill when said things are still perfectly fine. :)

I got a 6x4 shed today at Focus. It was slightly damaged so I got it for £80, which for a shed is a total bargain!

I'd never heard of that, sounds great, I shall have a look.
