New Shed....what do you think
« on: January 30, 2009, 17:28 »
So the 6x4 shed on my lotty is rotten and will be coming down and i'm gonna replace it with an 8x6. I had a look on ebay and 2nd hand ones are going for well over £100. Ive seen 2 that look ok, what do you think of these, the first comes with delivery and they put it up for you and the 2nd has a 10yr guarantee

The ebay one is only 28x28mm framing and the other is from the company below and i suspect are the seconds that are advertised, ive emailed them and and it has no guarantee.

Try looking in the garden centre bit of your local B&Q --- I saw five sheds in ours on FRiday all for £25 each, flat packed onto trolleys as ex display models. Can't go wrong at that price!!! (They were 6x4s mainly)

After watching the way they are farmed so supermarkets can sell em cheap I reckon you could get about 8thousand in there with plenty of poo for the lotty! :mad:

If you can get 21 students in a Mini Cooper then I guess that you could get more than 48 in there!  See:-
