Shed building morning

[rolf]

Spent the morning taking down an old shed (almost fell down on its own) and putting up a plastic one.

Took me just over two hours to build as some bits were difficult on my own, but I reckon two people could easily do it in an hour with the right tools.

Unfortunately the tree which you see lying on the lawn has died and it only took a slight push to bring it over, much to the disgust of the local sparrow flock.

Have now had to relocate two of the feeders to the Amelanchier tree on the left of the picture and of course Tilehurst Lido is temporarily closed (it's under the tree at the moment) as I'll have to look at another way of providing the facility.

[Chocky]

Oh dear. Is that your garden ?

[rolf]

Yes, it is.

We knew the tree was dead, so it was coming down anyway.

[Chocky]

Lol. These are aerial photos taken from above bye the looks.
Shame you had to fix it alone but well done

All you need to do now is tidy up

[rolf]

Will do over the next two or three days.

[Chocky]

I'll be inspecting

Hmm very nice. Well apart from the mess lol. Interesting that next door have the best side of BOTH larch lap fences pointing in to their garden.

Hadn't thought of that Jim, our fence (the one on the right) is in need of replacement, as next door's ivy which had grown out of control, had damaged it, removed it a couple of weeks back. I'm going to have to replace at least the middle post, but we will be planting more shrubs to fill in the gap left by the tree.
