I was talking to someone who's Grandfather had an allotment in a posh area of Edinburgh. You could have sheds, but the dimensions were deliberately set so that it was deemed impossible that anyone could have sex in it (lack of imagination on the part of the good Burghers  of Edinburgh...) Perhaps your shed  person is working on the same principle, or perhaps he doesn;t care, and wants everyone to see

  ;D ;D That first one is not unlike my shed....except mine does currently have a roof. As for having sex in it...you probably could if you really tried, but I wouldn't advise it unless you really like spiders or being poked by bamboo poles in unfortunate places  :o

I think thats full of possibilities !! You get a chance to make it very much your own.

My shed started out like that and we probably used the same amount of wood again to make it a but stonger and put shelves in a hiding area under the shed for my tools (and husbands beer) looked not much outside and fab inside i used old paint mixed it up and painted the walls and the ceiling and the floor :) Even nicked a comfy chair from the office - happy days :)
