In the sense of a load shed, I spent a shed load of money today on a shed. £500 to be precise, or approximately $830, on a garden shed. Ros and I went to Skinner's Sheds at the Lewes Garden Centre in Kingston as they have numerous wood built sheds, potting sheds, log cabins, workshops and summer houses on display. It is satisfying to be able to see what you are about to spend a shed load of cash on.
Skinner's are noted for their build quality and this was certainly evident in the shed that we selected. A 6' x 4' pressure treated shiplap pent roofed - garden shed. Delivery and on site erection is free. The shed is built with extra strong framework with diagonal bracing for extra strength and durability and is fitted with a tongue and groove floor and tongue and groove roof. They claim to build the strongest sheds on the market.
The only downside is that we have to wait until 27th June for our new shed to be delivered and erected. This is an indication of just how popular Skinner's sheds are.
It does provide adequate time for me to dismantle our existing shed, which is 25 years old and looks it, and have it disposed of. The content of the shed will need to be stored on the patio under a tarpaulin until the new shed arrives. I will need to shed some of the paraphernalia that has accumulated over 25 years.
I will need space in the new shed for a comfortable garden chair and somewhere on the shelf to strategically place a few beer mats.....
