Creosote is generally the preferred covering for wooden sheds. However, if it's brick built then one should either leave it as brick (although you could use masonary paint to spiff it up a bit), or pebbledash it.

When you drive to Cornwall (in your horseless carriage that's bound to frighten the locals) you'll be able to tell when you're close as not only will you have crossed the Taymar but walls by the road will have Cornish flags daubed on them as well as the slogan 'KERNOW BIS VICKEN' (Cornwall is great).
But on the Atlantic highway (A39- the non main road between Cornwall and Devon) the "Welcome to Cornwall" sign has spray painted on it: LOCALS ONLY.

 Swordfishtrombones
	Swordfishtromboneswhich is the one before Rain Dogs. They're probably my two favourite albums of his (Sam listening to music made in the 80s shocker!).
Bone Machine is well good too, I'm listening to that at the moment. Not so keen on the more show tune type stuff.
Edit: wasn't swordfishtrombones also badongism/BOAT's original username on here? Not entirely sure why or how I know that! He may have been a Jason Mraz fan (serious minus points) but at least the man seems to have some taste.

I have 78Gigs of music on mine, if I had to choose what to listen to every time I would never have time to drive anywhere. Shuffle lets me hear songs I wouldn't otherwise hear.

	As in the Mothers track BK?Superb choice!
Predated so many people doing far less interesting things.
Edit: al, you wouldn't believe how long it takes me to choose what I want to listen to. Usually end up sitting at the computer in front of My Computer screen for about half hour, I have a lot more than 78 gig.
The whole album thing is becoming less relevant though, not many people produce things that are written to be listened to in one session any more. For maximum geek points I have a .wav file of silence, approx 8 secs in length, to insert in Winamp playlists between (what would have been) sides A & B of the album, for that authentic vinyl listening experience.
I should probably get out more.

	Cheers for that, never heard of them beforeI think the phrase
Genre(s): Hard rock, psychedelic rock, space rock, stoner metal
on the Wikipedia page about them mean I shall be acquiring some of their material forthwith!
Also interestingly the page says that Monster Magnet was some sort of 60s toy, I assumed they must have named themselves after the Zappa song .
He just does nothing for me al. Like Springsteen or Lenny Kravitz or Coldplay or something, a lot of people rave about but just seems like really slickly packaged bland nothingness to me. You may infer from my posts in this thread and others that I listen to what I consider to be the exact opposite of this.

The rest of my family find it strange that I listen to music in the same way (and in preference to) they watch TV. Just sit in a big armchair and listen to it, not do anything else with music in the background. Just listen to it!
Edit: says on the all-knowing Wikipedia that they named themselves after the toy BK, I have no idea though. The Zappa one was definitely released first though!
Edit 2: I've shuffled my entire music library and it comes up with some serious fucking weirdness! According to Winamp I have enough music to play for 397 days 04:43:32...
