    What is in my shed, when I am down the allotment?

    My kids. They are playing with (rearranging) bits of gardening gadgetry, playing with their painted rocks and squabbling over who gets to wind the wind-up radio. They are also playing with the mini play sandpit they are not supposed to play with in the shed because the whole shed turns into a sandpit.

    Also BBQ charcoal for dinner down the allotment.

    The big tools (spade, hoe, watering can, hose etc) just lie around the plot or in/on the compost heap, wherever they were last used...

      Big shed/Summerhouse, which is supposed to be my she-shed for my hobbies, is full of stuff to finish doing up my house, plus a garden arch and a poly tunnel that I bought 3 years ago. Small shed meant for garden things, apart from a few garden tools, is mostly full of cardboard boxes that I saved for a project that I haven’t started yet.

        Simply too much stuff!
        Moved plots a couple of years ago and got a bigger shed - but it still got full up. TBH a lot of it is cardboard which I'll put on the beds over winter - but until then it's always in the way

          Big summerhouse is now a big model railway house lol, I dismantled the one in the loft, it really wasn't suitable for access and I am now building a new one for me and the grandsons to play with if it's raining.

            lots of stuff I inherited with the plot.
            some highlights:
            a bag of tea towels?
            plastic orange pedestrian netting (the sort that usually adorns roadworks)
            a bag of CDs (all the same CD)
            lots of plastic pots
            several cigarette lighters
            a bottle opener (on a nail - sensible chap)
            cable ties
            Lots of tools
            Lots of old post sacks and a post-office body-warmer (I'm hoping the PO was a postie and not a bank-robber...) .

            The site consensus was that I could have not paid the previous owner for the contents, but I feel a lot better for doing it.

            Burnie - if you are doing a railway in a conservatory, do be mindful of the heat/bleaching effects of all the sunlight in there.

            My little one loves my dad's model railway, so I wish you many happy hours of using it with the grandkids...

              Thanks, it's in a wooden summer house, still gets a bit warm, but with blinds, no direct sunlight

                I had a shed clear out a few weeks back my son helped me rearrange everything according to his way, now I can find nothing except the big stuff.
                Ride on lawnmower, rotovator, petrol strimmer, garden shredder, 3 kids bikes, ladder, bench, tools, welding plant, assorted paints and thinners, wild bird feed, big tug of war rope, fuel cans.

                  Mine has got a nice plush chair to sit in when it's raining, a nice chunky old potting bench, lots of lovingly restored vintage tools, a Belfast sink with a big bar of French soap, and a big box of neatly arranged seed packets, twine in a pretty tin, tea kettle and cake tin, and a little mouse called Eddie who tidies up crumbs and dropped seeds so I never need to use my nice dustpan and brush.

                  Then again, I am the Queen of Sheba....

                  (I have no shed)....*SIGH*
