Years ago, we had a massive TV. And then it broke down. As it was too big for me to move, we had to wait for about three months till my parents visited and it could be taken away.
After that, I was determined to say no to any other offerings if they were too big or heavy for me to deal with alone. However, I then accepted a Wendy house from my sister – it could be deconstructed and would fit in a car.
Except that it didn’t deconstruct anywhere easily as I had hoped. Anyone who remembers my post Sorry Strawberries might also remember how it went. But someone did buy it the next day and came back with a car big enough to fit it in last night.
Now I have work to do in order to prepare the place for a shed. Then I will need to bite the bullet and actually choose a shed: exact size, window or no window….
Whatever I choose, it will need to house all the gardening equipment I have been keeping in the house as well as the heap that is on the garden path, or what was the said path. For all that, though, I would rather be planting another tree!
Growing out of chaos 
It should be a great help to have a shed Helen 🙂 Worth the time and effort. Good luck!
Thank you, Kathy. Juggling lots of stuff like decorating at the same time, so with the dark evenings it’s going to take a while. I need all the encouragement I can get 😉
Not sure if you have thought about it or not… But you will need electricity piped out to the shed. You will need a light of some description so unless you don’t mind burning through batteries (Or set up a solar cell) you will need to fit a mains led light.
Glad to see it finally went though!
Why would I need a light? I don’t think I will be going in there after dark – or I can use the torch on my phone to locate something.
My friend thought that then, after hurting himself a number of times, gave up and fitted a light. So much easier!
Oh, I see. Well, thanks for the heads-up 😊
Just something to think about. But a solar cell would be a better idea if you can arrange it.
Yes, better idea for various reasons 😊
Do you get any sun in your garden? What is your aspect?
The garden is south facing, so most of the year it gets sun on it. Unfortunately, at this time of year, much of the sun is blocked by buildings and trees. Why do you ask?
Running solar cells. They need a minimum of 6 hours of sun to do anything is all.
I have one on the front of the house (north facing) which isn’t working at the moment because it won’t get any sun until a couple of weeks from now. Not sure when it will get enough to work but if I see how that fares it will help me see if a solar cell could work for the shed.
Ok, now I’m caught up. I followed the thread, above, about a light for your shed. Perhaps a window is a good compromise for letting in natural light during the day.
Most of the sheds seem to come with windows but that is a good point. For security, I’d been thinking of not having a window but instead I might go for the window and put a curtain over it.
Are you worried about a break in? Perhaps they make a version with two small windows that let in light and ventilation, but are too small for someone to break in, especially if you are keeping a bike in there.
That’s an idea 😊
