Welcome to the official opening of Granddads' shed

Congratulations syberia, so exciting!

pssst .... (whisper) .... congratulations and welcome!

Introducing myself as a newbie to the garden shed, many thanks to glassortwo fort the introduction. I am a bit of a tea leaf so am making myself a you are welcome to join me. Perhaps a few slices of toast would be nice as well

Forgot to say, I come from North Somerset and have four lovely grandchildren.

Hello ElseG, welcome to the shed. Toast sound good, plenty of marmalade for me please.

Good morning....I'll join you for toast and marmalade, but need coffee with mine.
A bit brighter here today and not quite so cold.

Back to the RL garden for a while, have to construct a path around my new fruit area. That will hopefully complete all the construction work in the garden for the foreseeable future, look forward to planting in the autumn.

Good morning again. Sorry to have to leave you to finish off the toast yesterday, housework called . Hope you all slept well and are ready to face the day (big yawn and stretch). Let me just dust up a few of yesterday's crumbs and I shall prepare a fresh batch of toast. Now, let me see; how do you like your tea . . . . .?

Forgot to mention, I picked up this fly trap plant it is supposed to be better than a Venus Fly Trap. Do you think space could be found for it in here?

Think I'll spend a quiet day in the shed, I sense an anti GD day coming up in other threads.

Hello shedders. Thanks for the toast, elseg. DD says I make 'juicy' toast.

Just popping the coffee on for those who would like it.

Think I may stay in here too, it is getting quite 'hot' out there

Hi again, shedders! Lovely and peaceful in here today. The sun is over the yard arm and my chest hurts so I've brought a small white with me. Can somebody explain why it helps when my inhaler doesn't? Please note, teetotal worthies, this is all the I'll have today.

Excuse me whilst I dump this bag of croissants here, a change for the weekend. Feel free to help yourselves and don't let them go to waste; ginger conserve and apricot jam to go with them.

Thanks ElseG, they will set me up for another days work in the garden. Hope to finish the last of the construction work today -- putting up a linen pole for Mrs. P. Her old one was tied to the trees that have now been cut down.

Oh dear I have shot my bolt on another thread, need to come in here to run my fingers through the mud and do some potting. I know it is the wrong time of year but then we can virtually do what we like I guess

You have a good play in the mud if you wish, even roll in it if that's what floats your boat. I have some RL potting to do today, have some blueberries that need bigger pots.

There is nothing quite like mud encrusted finger nails

In our RL shed tonight, had our carpets cleaned todat, so the are still a bit damp.

Sitting in the shed with a large brandy, watching TV and checking out Gransnet, very peaceful. ( Mrs. P calls it a Summer house, but it's a posh shed really)

We have a shed summer house like that, pompa.

It is Mrs. P's pride and joy. It has all mod cons, comfy armchairs, TV, strawberry themed bunting (from Mybunting.co.uk) all very country cottage, to match the garden.

Spent some time this evening in my 'actual', as opposed to 'virtual' garden shed and this one is much nicer! Think I need to get the Marigolds on and shift some spiders ........and their children.......and their grandchildren.......and their great-grandchildren and their.......well, you get the picture! Lots of spiders!!!!

We don't do posh or pride and joy, just interesting. So our shed summer house has a built in bunk (sleeps several), a wood-burning stove, a motley collection of old chairs, Mr and Miss B's sailing drysuits and three bikes. Oh, and the shredder lives in a corner too.

We gave Our shed away to a neighbour to make way for a conservatory; now that's posh! There was not much room in the shed anyway, full of gardening stuff for some reason! Now there's no room in the conservatory

ElseG your message made me laugh out loud...
