      Being delivered next Wednesday. Had an email very early this morning advising of their delivery (much earlier than expected) and then around 0820 this morning, I had a phone call confirming the delivery also.

      I am tempted to try and take photos of the build, and then do some sort of review of the shed for this thread if anyone would be interested?

        I’m not in the market (one shed is enough:biggrin:), but I’m sure it would be useful for reference, for anyone considering buying a shed in the future?

          It's certainly worthwhile. The fact that people bother to make and post YouTube videos of things they make or repair, must help others. It's confirmed that people are interested by the number of "hits" they receive.
          It's the first place I go if I'm about to tackle a particular job and want to see how others went about it. Usually, "only the ones that work," end up on YouTube.
          My video pf my tea-house build, which is only a succession of still photos with a write up, has had to date over 73,000 hits.

          At last! These sheds have caused you enough aggro FC! Don't forget to check you have all the parts before construction. :)

          So will Cuddly 'PENDING SHED' Scottish Admin! change to Cuddly 'NEW SHED' Scottish Admin! ? :biggrin:

            I think we have to go through a cycle to get there @Sheal - maybe 'PENDING SHED' then 'SHED IN PARTS' then 'SHED IN BUILD' followed by 'NEW SHED'?

              :dbgrtmb: I think when 'NEW SHED' is finally up, you'll have to give it a name....preferably something repeatable! :biggrin:

                        I think the first one's tempting fate @Fat Controller. It doesn't exactly roll off the tongue either. :biggrin:

                        Although there is a Caisteal Tioram in existence, ironically it sits on a small island in Loch Moidart - not exactly a dry place. :biggrin:
