We have a little green one by the back door that holds wood (made so that I don't have to go hunting for wood when Rachel was little).
Then we have the temporary wood store that's up on the drive. Dave made this to chuck a HUGE load of wet wood we got given. It's worked incredibly well.
We then have the old shed in the middle of the garden. Apparently it used to be a chicken shed. It's old and falling down.
We finally have the new shed. It was put up a few years ago, but we had trouble with a leak which took a long time to sort.
But now it's sorted! So, on the arrival of our new baby girl in February 2017, we needed to get the old she's down, and make the garden safe for Rachel, so that I could sit and feed Emily whilst Rachel played, without me having to worry about her getting out on the road.
It's been a long journey. And a lot of nagging!
It started with dave and his dad shifting a mound of soil we had stored behind the cars (this was from when we dug up for the base for the new shed, and it was too good to get rid of).
They then removed the concrete. But I don't have any photos of that! Before laying a new patio in its place for dave to park his car properly, which dave did with my dad. At the same time they made two planters for the raspberries and strawberries.
After that (a week or so apart!) dad and dave started taking down the old shed!!!! WAHOOOOOO
A few weeks later Daves dad (Richard) and dave started to take the floor up..... started. After about half and hour dave hit his hand - between a concrete block and pick axe handle. So, off we went to a&e from 10am to 3pm....
His dad carried on though! (What a trooper)
Eventually they got it all up. Then Dad and Dave made a planter for our herbs, and seeded the lawn.
