and my shed pm, after donations of wood and tools and especially Gordon who built my new shed door,
the bad and good of allotmenteering on the same day, / shades x
why do they do it did they steal stuff or was it just wantant damage bet you said a few choice words wouldnt want to be them if you got your hands on em chin up though
A lad at our allotments had his 18x10ft shed stollen this year, some young lads took it carried it down the steep banking at the end of our allotments, across a stream through three fields then back across the stream, they then built it up as part of the biggest tree house you have ever seen.
Boy the fun we had bringing that back.
>:(
What jerks. I'm glad you at least got help and support from NICE people.

Thats why we are not allowed sheds on our site, they seem to target sheds and so far we have had no trouble there for many years !
We can only have units under 1 meter high, but we do have a big metal storage place that we can leave our tools in if we want to.
Soooooooo anoying the damage they cause >:(
Sorry to hear that Shades... we've been OK this year but had loads of break-ins last year... our local "tea leaf" must be back inside... ::)
Its so disheartening, and so annoying! I keep going back to when I was a kid......any adult was within their rights to cuff an ear for bad behaviour.
It didnt do me any harm to have respect for other people or their property, I didnt smash windows, scratch cars or steal.
Maybe if our nanny state kept thier nose out of proper parenting, we wouldn't have the trouble we have today >:( (but thats another topic )
Im glad you had help to fix the door shades, its a lovely shed too ;)
Back in those days people didn't move about so much, so you probably knew the person doing the cuffing, and, in most cases, knew they were OK. These days, you don't. People either had extended families around for support, or if they didn't, their parents did. We've now got to the point where several generations have probably been raised by families with little or no support; parents who don't cope produce childern who can't cope either, so it snowballs. We're just not designed to live in little nuclear families with no support from a wider community, and it shows.

new door painted, baskets up etc
Saddad, our local 'tea leaf' is out, at least he didn't burn it to the ground this time ::)/ shades x
We cleared a completely overgrown plot... Head high brambles and self set damsons... hadn't been cultivated for at least 15 years by the tree rings! "Found" a shed/greenhouse at the back nobody knew was there... a week later a muppet set light to a shed on the neighbouring allotment and burnt it down as well!
