Converting an old shed into a nice summer house… well that’s the plan! ?

I am actually in St Albans for a few days staying with my daughter. My daughter-in-law open them for the electrician and she found them broke, we ordered them and have them delivered from homebase but we have a homebase near us and she will return them today and see what happens but a big disappointment

She could have cut herself really badly opening them. Do you know Old Bricket Wood in StAlbans? My friend used to live there (not in the nudist colony…)

Actually my daughter is just outside St Albans in a small village called Sandridge and I don’t really know anywhere else around here…nudist colony? Must ask Jess..?

Yes, there is a nudist village. Didn't they make a tv program about it?

I seem to remember either a programme or series about nudists that included Old Bricket Wood.

Phwooooaaarrrrh!

Yes, my daughter has heard of it but not visited it to my knowledge ?

My Aunt and Uncle live in St Albans. They've never mentioned a nudist colony. Hmmmm...time we visited again.

Still a way to go but have got some furniture in the shed, it will look a lot better when it’s dressed (don’t we all%!!?) sofa bed is quite hard will have to get some sort of cushioning for that..

From this to that, I am happy I did not burn it down and start again!!

It looks lovely

This…

One more try…

It is saying the image is too big but it is the same size as the one I just posted??

Just lovely Shina in fact am very ?
Just right for lazing about in a comfy chair with a good book.

Loving the clean fresh look Shinamae presuming you may be having bed and breakfast in there lol.

So glad you decided to keep it an renovate and use the wood structure you already had rather than burn it all. Saving at least some! of the planet, well done.

It looks a lovely calm escape.

(when are the invites going out? are we allowed alcohol)

Look forward to the next installment.

That’s what it’s going to be Lemongrove, a reading room, maybe a few candles or a wax burner maybe but definitely no technology I’m not even gonna take my phone out there, when I’m out there I’m out there just to read ?

Electrician coming today to fit the new lights, hope it goes well after debacle with the lights from homebase who still have not refunded my money…?

I have light!!! Just need something on the walls now, and I’m waiting for the rough weather to hit. ?

Shinamae it's looking lovely. What a nice, calming place to retreat to. But please don't ask for nasty weather, I could do with a bit more Summer yet ?

?? sorry but I do not like hot weather, I thrive in the rain and wind, maybe it’s because I was born in February!! ????.. The wilder the better for me…?

Still too warm to go out in my garden room, I am waiting for heavy rain and wind….

I fear you won’t have to wait long shinamae. I love your garden room but not your weather choice . Sunshine and calm breezes for me.

Yes, I realise I am in the minority with my choice of favourite weather…??

It is such a contrast and I am so pleased, just waiting for some artwork for the walls, when I say artwork I need prints from Wayfair!!

You’ll be all cosy looking out on the rain. It looks lovely. ?

Lovely, well done, calming and serene .
