Getting our Shed Ready, from clearing out the old stuff and getting ready to open our new "Shed". The temporary "Shed" has been leased to us by New Milton Town Council and includes electricity and a water supply - perfect for tea making - and toilet facilities.
It wasn't much to look when we first took it over, it was a good start with plenty of scope to create our "Shed".
