As most of you who know me, I rarely turn down any opportunity to go out and get myself bladered, however for the first time ever this weekend, I blew mates and family out in order to subject myself to an arduous task and physical pain of performing some do it yourself. This by no means was an easy decision, however, I have developed a strange fetish for sheds recently and I'm not too sure if this is the result of getting old and senial. Having yo yo'd my way to and from Homebase 3 times this weekend in my car (which is on it's last legs, however if it passes MOT this week, I will treat it with all the respect she truely deserves), I managed to buy a total of 36 paving slabs, 12 bags of sharp sand, 4 bags of mortar and 28 bricks. The result so far:

This is marking up only before prying off the 35 slabs of paving and laying on the mortar. As far as hated chores around the home, this has to be right up there next to ironing. I'm not particularly looking forward to the back pain which has already begun to work it's way to every muscle I didn't know I have. Yes, I have a really lame garden, but it was even worse before.Think I'm gonna have to pay some cowboy to put the shed together for me.

    though i have difficulty understanding your latest 'fetish', the passion and indeed sacrifices you made to pursue it are commendable!

    so if I understand correctly, the wife vetoed your multi-million-pound shed idea, so now you're having to build your own (ghetto one)? Just kidding - it looks ... ah, great.
