@Paulus , it’s worth checking out Tiger sheds there based in West Yorkshire, we have an 8x6 . Lots options such as heavy duty frame . They offered both a better quality and price than a shed company a mile from my house.Son is picking me up at ten to go looking at new sheds for his garden. 10x8 is his preferred size.
Stay calm everyone, drink tea.
Not all that strange and I tend the same way. Just happened to make some good investments and when Building Societies became banks I had a few different ones who all paid out very well so increased my capital. I never had travel expenses to work but that would be a big saving for a lot of people.Strange as it my seem, I'm actually better of now than I have ever been in my whole life.
My liquidity has never been as good.
Dunno how that happened!
When I repaired knitting machinery inevitably a tiny screw made a bid for freedom. Since this was in a workshop with working machinery around the floor was less than pristine. Used to spend ages and got one of the girls as well crawling around on hands and knees searching for the b----y thing. They were odd sizes so not easy to find alternatives.
MY younger son was coming back from some middle eastern job and was asked to give up his window seat on the plane so that a family could all sit together. He did this with no quibble and the father of the family gave him his business card and said he was executive director of Addidas [ I think]and to sent his shoe size and any trainer he fancied to his office. He did this and indeed got a very expensive pair of trainers for free.I paid £150 for pair of shoes 30 years ago. They were the most expensive ones i ever bought. I have paid £100 for a pair of trainers as well
Looks like tomorrow morning might be murky and overcast but dry here so I am charging my lights just in case I fancy a really early jaunt. I shall see.
Don't you go spoiling her
Just last week I was giving one of Mrs Tenkaykev's bikes a once over prior to handing it over to our daughter. It has a fixing bracket for a basket. I was repositioning it and a recessed nut dropped off the fitting. Rather foolishly I chose to make the adjustment in the area of the garden that has loose chippings, the small nut disappeared, nowhere to be found. I remembered that I had a strong magnet in the shed, so I tied a piece of string around it and dangled it an inch or so above the ground, slowly moving it back and forth. Success! i hear a "clink" and the nut was attached to the magnet. It's a technique that I'd used from time to time at work, not so good on Stainless steel though.
Happy anniversary
