Well our Tracy has seen an old shed hiding amongst the overgrown brambles on the allotment site. No one has worked the plot for years so the secretary said she could have it. We are going to have a look at it today. I will take the camera and share the moment with you.
(http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e220/supersprout/smilies/thumb.gif) look forward to that! :)
GREAT news!! Look forward to the pix. Congrats Tracy on your initiative 8)

Tracy. Just know it won't be long before you have a great shed. I am sure Shirley helped you persuade Dad ::) Good luck, fingers crossed for you.

Hope it is reasonable nick, when we cleared our second plot we found a shed/greenhouse affair hidden at the back... honestly couldn't see it before we started a real sleeping beauty moment... about a week later vandals burnt down a shed on the back of the next allotment and this burnt down as well.... :'(
Well folks here are the promised pics of our Tracy's lucky find. This first one is Tony or what can be seen of him in the brambles no shed as yet lol
At last a shed
Hang on theres two of them
Tony said it would be very difficult to get them out of all that bramble sooooooooo using my womans wiles I said thats ok if you can't do it Tone, when I get this plaster off on wednesday Bunjy and me will get it out. Well of course that did the trick. Why are men not adventurous like us women. I can just imagine those two sheds on our Buns plot.Anyway he's thinking a bit more positively now. So if the weathers ok next week we will begin the expedition lol
They fall for it every time, don't they! ;)
Great pictures, shirl ;D
Just wondering......how the heck did Tracy find them in the first place? hmmm..no lavvies on her lottie site then? Oooo, bet those brambles were sharp ::)
I never thought to ask her what she was doing in there. Perhaps she will tell us eh!
;D ;D....well i could tell you id been busy in the bushes :P.... but i could see the one from the side of the allotments through the metal fence its hidden a bit by trees and bushes and i thought oooo i'll go take a look!
anyway i got round there and found 2!!...hopefuly we'll have some pics of them in there new home soon

And it's kosher you can have them both if they're fit to move? Dunno if yer dad will be, tho.....lay in the Sanatogen "fortifies the Over-40s", that'll sort him out . As might a bramble up his bum.....
This is a great tip, tho, for anyone who's in need of a shed & sees one (or two ::)) on a neglected plot? See what happens when you ask!
Really looking forward to hearing the next instalment ;D

We moved one of the sheds today. Bloomin hard work too. Forgot the camera. Just propped them up for now. You should have seen the size of the spiders that were in there. Will try to get some pics of it in it's new home. Sometimes the seeds we sew take a little longer to germinate eh! pmsl
anything else inside of value???
well not of value. A home made tattie dibber. some gloves. A few old coats. Some self harvested onion or leek seeds. 2 tins of paint, an old saw and trowel. Some tins of old nails and niuts and bolts. Loads of plastic bags. wellis and thats about all.
Exciting, innit? I've been waiting for this topic to get started again 8) Looking forward to the progress reports Shirl.
Just off for a four hour natter to a friend but just wanted to say Well done you!!!! Waiting for pics.
Lorna
