Default growing vegetables is now trendy :)

The message .com
from "La puce" contains these words:

/snip/

We had built the
best shed you've ever seen, with a trap for the children and an
observation roof (mainly used for my boys to jump from).


Can't have built *THE* best shed I've ever seen - I built that.

It started life as a potting shed on the end of the garage, then, in my
mid teens I extended it back, then I extended it to one side, then I
built a chimney stack and big fireplace, then, in my late teens I
extended it out the back, with a secret door covered in shelves of
things like small drums of grease, Gunk, oilcans, Duraglit, etc to hide
the lathe and its tools which lived behind it.

The bit where the lathe lived had glass panels in the roof and no
windows in the walls, to baffle any theiving scrotes who might nose
round - mind you, the bull terror was probably more of a deterrent.

At one time it had twenty motorcycles in it - eighteen of them
roadworthy - and still room to work at the bench.
