This man is a living legend!!  He's also a living, breathing, walking, talking/swearing advert for common sense over health & safety.  If a man of years such as he is, can traverse the war zone that is his shed without injury, it not messy or dangerous, just badly organized  

I bet none of the neat and tidy brigade have trophies or help out as much as he seems to.

You should to a Bi-weekly youtube video 'A thought from George' where he could expound the virtues of compost sterilisers, human waste recycling, how to identify things that might be useful, how to make movable greenhouses, why have a shed thats bigger than a modern 2 bed semi etc etc

The Chairman's found George some battle ship grey!
Those of you who have come to know George will notice a certain "tidiness" around the shed, still an imminent threat of the Landlord's agent inspecting!

Hate to sound negative, but I'm not sure that painting the shed will endear the landlord's agent to any extent

Well at least it's not pink any more, we've had complaints from the neighbours!

[jrko]

Maybe he could paint an advertisement on the landlord's other businesses?

What a truly wonderful read.
I'm sure his shed is bigger than my plot though..!! :blink:

If anything is said, the fact of "George's Shed" being internationally famous should count for something!
Of course his collection is esential to the allotments, timber to sit a shed on, spare glass for greenhouses, flowers to butter up wives. George will always find a newcomer a wheel barrow as if by magic; he has laid a flag path for a lady's hanicapped son's wheelchair.
At the moment we are trying to help a Chinese lady by making her a composter and trying to make her raised beds bigger than her weed plots! He's sorting timber for that project whilst still exploring the dark recesses of the shed! Of course the Chinese lady is involved in a takeaway, but we won't let that influence good works!

The shed's had the burglars!
Several shed locks were smashed but nothing appears to have be taken!
George doesn't lock his and it took some time to work out what had been disturbed, but his hip flask had been sampled and strangely they closed all the doors as they left!
We then had to repair one of the gates where they'd tried to break out!!!

[Trillium]

The burglars were certainly a brave bunch attempting to raid George's hoarder's nest  Glad they didn't do any damage as most seem to love doing.

Are you telling us George didn't have a single bear trap in there?

[A. Fallowfield]

Today we have been mostly building a composter for a small Chinese lady! We don't want her to get into trouble with the committee, notice the carpet of weeds! 

Of course the fact that she's cooking noodles for us later in the week has nothing to do with it!

[Pimento]

I've been away for a while. Just the sight of the ladder in front of George's composter had tears of laughter rolling down my cheeks again.

Well done, Mr Fallowfield - I applaud you.

[A. Fallowfield]

Had lunch with George today, I took my own, the stuff that comes from that built in cooker is more suited to jungle survival!
We had to discuss the work we're doing to clear plots left in a state by a recent evictee as the new tenants take over!
