January 1st and the first day in the garden of 2015

What a brilliant tidying job you have done and I love the 'Pots Shed', I am quite jealous!;)

An attractive looking "pots shed". I am jealous too.
All the best in the New year SBG.

Will it be a potting shed too?
That bench looks just right for a compost tray and a brilliant place to work on damp days. ....clever OH and lucky you ☺

That she'd will help loads with space in the greenhouse....happy new year SBG

Glad you like it, I hope it will last a long time. How long it will remain just my space is the real question. it will also be ideal for drying freshly painted bike bits! I'm usually ok at keeping pots organised.

The shelf is an ideal working height for OH but he is 6'1" and I'm only 5' 3". So my 'natural shelf' rests on the shelf :o) So potting small pots and seed trays will be fine but I prefer to do most of the seed sowing stuff in the greenhouse where it is a lot brighter.

I wont be leaving any tools in the shed though. hey normally live in the coal house that is also a storage area linked to the house and secure. Too many sheds get broken into and whilst we are in quite a low crime area I don't want to push my luck.

Isn't that just the best Present for a Gardener,Sue? What a thoughtful OH..and certainly not for keeping bike bits in..It's yours,all yours :o) I like to keep my pots tidy too,..how do we manage to amass so many? I have one of those strong plastic storage boxes on wheels,which is just the job for mine..:o)

Happy New Year to you too Sbg. That is a wonderful present from your OH. I see it even has electricity installed. Love the view from your garden.

Sorry,Sbg,I called you Sue..:o)

Pushing your luck there Snoop?

That is a very good present and will last for years, I always smile when you refer to hubby as a grumpy one because he sounds so much like mine, also a grumpy one who cannot do things outside without I'm the dogsbody to fetch and carry, moans all the time whilst doing the jobs but at the same time gets me some grand gifts and suchlike for my gardening passion and has helped over the years create some smashing features.....

thats spot on lincs. He has to have the job done properly too or it will bug him for ever. Shelves spirit level checked too. I had hoped for jewellery but when he spots something he knows I'll like he'll treat me then.

As for the electricity the wiring for it was still there from the wendy house Scotsgran. Shame not to use it but I could do with a brighter bulb.

Not to worry Bloomer I answer to most things.

I wont rise to that one snoop but he does have his own shed, workshop and double garage. not to mention the overspill in the conservatory, dining room table, under the bed........ need I go on? [but I knew that before I married him]

What a very thoughtful OH SBG. I hope you get to keep it all for yourself for a while :)
All the best to you and yours for 2015 x

Hi Sbg, thank you and the same to you and yours, you can never have enough sheds, I have 3 plus 2 greenhouses, I can just about get into 1 of them, and I can only get just into the doorway of the old greenhouse, I was going to get rid of it when I got my new greenhouse, but then I started putting "things"in it temporarily, so it's still there, Derek.

Very useful, that shed...particularly all those shelves.
All my pots etc are still in boxes stacked among many other boxes since our move, in my falling down, rotten shed .
Happy new year to you, too!

Oh you lucky girl! I wish I had room for a shed of my own rather than having to share the garage with my OH, his tool bench and the car of course. You've done a wonderful tidy up job..now will it stay so tidy? Oh, I almost forgot.Happy New Year!!

so far its still all mine Scottish but it is only jan 2nd haha.
I know what you mean Derek. the green house is 20x 8 [two 10x8 fastened end to end] and there are times when it was a little cluttered.
I was good to snoop wasn't I pamg?
I still have the odd sack of unsorted pots. colleagues off load their empty pots as they know I propagate and sell for charity paul.

waddy my car has to live on the drive as the garage has too many things in it. I suspect it will be moderately tidy most of the time.

What a wonderful surprise ... just the right place for all those pots !
You've got a nice view too :)

thanks Hywel, not as good a view as you have though.

Now that's what I call a Christmas prezzy ... best wishes to you and yours for a happy and healthy 2015.

What a thoughtful xmas present - that man's a keeper!
Electricity too! :-))

Super! You must be really chuffed with your shed, Sbg.
A very happy New Year to you.

A great gift - make sure you keep the key safe, and keep the shed tidy! :-) (How long for, I wonder...lol)

what a nice surprise for you, I keep looking at all the leaf litter in the garden but that's as far as it has got, LOOKING lol well done you for a grand tidy up!

See, not grumpy, but thoughtful:-) enjoyed seeing your garden pics too and what fabulous views you have:-)

I have also been seeing lots of robins this year but I also had lots of grubs last year (slugs) and no robins came -.- I had no more once I got rid of them with the salt technique. do I need to build a rockery this time and introduce slugs so robins will come over I will still use the salt technique to protect some of my plants but others I will let them eat. plus I've had one robin this year on my balcony but couldn't photograph it on time -.-
(I have a balcony)

Still all tidy and I was nice and snug in there today out of the wind. Haven't got all pots sorted yet, as I found another bin liner of assorted pots at the back of the greenhouse. Job for tomorrow morning. Of to see the Hobbit with my youngest girl tomorrow pm
