The plan is to sit here overlooking the meadows marking instead of sitting at my desk. Of course it sits proudly at the top of the garden looking over the valley surrounded by trees. The only negative is there is a main road 20 meters away but now the 'Man Hut' has been completed it is actually not to noticeable as it is behind.
Yes I have been the subject of some banter at work but all good fun, and now the ideas are free flowing. With the shed all but complete it was time to move in, the cross-trainer was first in followed by the ipod and LED lighting. The chiminea should keep me warm in the winter. The next stage is to start clearing further ground for an outdoor sitting area and create a home for the BBQ. The plan is to sit in the late afternoon sun and watch it go down whilst cooking tea and relaxing. A marking hideaway it is too and I am sure my OU students will be grateful that I am marking their work in a relaxing environment :-).
Next stage is to find a way of venting the chiminea so I can have a log burner going otherwise I might have to explain the rosie cheeks.
A special thanks to Matt for laying the foundations and giving me a nice level platform on which to build and for helping an old man complete the erection that he thought he could do on his own. A big thanks to the delivery man, the look on his face when I showed him where the shed was going was well worth waiting for. Needless to say it was dropped at the roadside as expected but it was very manageable I soon moved it up the garden.
So watch this space as I add a few more pics, whats this got to do with technology ? wait till you see the LED lights flashing from miles away video to come shortly there just a few too many leaves at the moment..
