I am going to purchase a shed!!
Having owned lots of sheds but never bought one (House always came with one).
I have two choices
http://www.gardenbuildingsdirect.co.uk/Wooden-Sheds/BillyOh-Lincoln-Tongue-and-Groove-Apex-8-x-6#heading-product-sizes 6*4 or
http://www.shedstore.co.uk/itemdetl.php/itemprcd/tra86ssa 8*6 and £50 more. Your thoughts from your shed like please.

Tongue and groove is good!
Comes down to whether you want a single window or a run of windows. I have a long bench built in as an 18 ins wide sill and this is fantastic.
Also the shed store one doesn't come ready treated unless you pay extra

Hope that helps

I was going to treat myself and then the shed.   Just these big purchases make me nervous.  Even more so because the wife will go mad.

I would go for the second one , it has T&G floor and ceiling while the first is OSB. I don`t rate OSB for floors that are likely to get wet.

Oh B*gger I have just found it £10 cheaper!!!!!!! That makes it only £40 difference.  I think its a no brain-er.

Go For It !!

the T&G floor and ceiling are a good idea.
If you're going to treat the wood, don't use one of these awful water-based products.
Go for something supposedly environmentally unfriendly.......
It'll make the wood last far longer, and you won't have to do it so often, proving the utter bunkum of the value of the other muck. (Just my opinion, of course)

Fanks for you advice I will purchase said Shed closer to weekend as I will have to have a day off and the wife will not know till it turns up.
"Oppps I thought it was a 6*4"
"Really its a 8*6 wow and for that price as well what a good deal I got"
"What do you mean its too big"
"Put the frying pan down"
"I am and I can run faster than you ..............."

Once it's up she'll be converted --- or you will need new running shoes

Put a bolt on the inside too so she can`t get at you , emergency stash of beer and food in case of siege .

OK I did purchase said shed.  But left it a bit long and I the price went up £20. Plus I went for the factory coat of preserver. Well it would have cost me more to purchase the preserver from a DIY store!! The wife said what about this chicken coop (till she saw the price). I nearly fell off me perch £470.00!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thats two sheds. Granted its made of pressure treated wood but wow what a price.

Pity you paid so much what you could have had  

[Roughlee Handled]

You would have to have "skills" to build that and I certainly do not have them. I can not even use a hammer correctly.

[Yabba]

My thumb's the only reason why the wood doesn't have loads of hammer marks in it
