I want a little garden shed
where I can get away from everyone keep the kids my gardening tools and stuff but they're all bloody expensive! The cheapest is over £100! I'm seriously considering knocking one together myself (not a good idea - I'm inclined towards bodging).

What do you have to resort to because you can't afford what you want?

Owning less shoes than I would like to
£100 for a shed isn't really very expensive though.

True
but when your next pay cheque is October it's rather a lot of money...and if I'm honest...another shed is a luxury...but I want one!

Well, another shed is just greedy
:P

I know!
I already have two and a garage (full of stuff) but I *need* another one...it's all to do with my desire to organise everything.

And greed.

You could try
hollowing out one of the twins and using him as a handy storage recepticle. There are two of them after all; he can be providing a service and at the same time your food and clothing bills would be drastically reduced, I'll wager.


please don't hit me

Hmmm.....
*thinks*

I will bear this in mind the next time they annoy me.

As an added bonus
You can use the hollowed twin's organs as spare parts until the other twin needs a transplant. But then, you'd need a shed to store the organs.

I made a wood store out of pallets I found on the street and a free bit of mdf from Ikea.
The 'real' ones are a couple of hundred quid. My front garden looks like a pikey encampment because people keep giving me old furniture to chop up and add to it.

Excellent for a wood store
I've turfed all the gardening tools out of the proper shed because I want to use it to write in...so I've got to get something else for the garden tools.

I really should just MTFU.

see, this sounds like displacement to me, madam.
Like "oh, I can't write yet, I haven't got the right pen/notebook/cup for my coffee".

Of course it's displacement!
I *am* the Procrastination Queen!

I've cleared the shed out....I just need to vacuum it to get rid of the cobwebs and dust...put a chair in there (or just clean up the one that's there) and I can start.

Shit.
I'll have to actually write.

Because a tribal coin bra alone can cost upwards of about £60.
