Recommend me a shed...
Space in the garage is tight at the moment, what with a giant chassis building table taking up every single bit of room there is.... there's also other bits of carp such as 2 suitcases filled with books (since there's no room for them in the house) and some other stuff. I could really do with a shed to store all the non bike/non car rubbish out of the way. Looking to spend around 100 quid (will go upto 150 at a push).
Tried b&q and a few local garden centres but you'd think the shed's were made out of platinum or mushed up rolex's or something... Ta! Oh and for all the shed pervs out there, feel free to post a pic of your shed if you have one

Re: Recommend me a shed...
I should have posted sizes in op...
6x4 ft will be fine - not bothered about windows ideally it should be waterproof (but they all leak in the end). Most stuff stored inside will be in plastic boxes with lids

Re: Recommend me a shed...
I've put up a few flat-pack timber sheds for folks, they are mostly fairly feeble affairs to be honest and somewhat overpriced for what they are.
I built this one from scratch for someone, all 1" thick boarding on 3"x3" framework, fibre-cement roof etc. Materials alone cost about £600. Well worth looking into the plastic/steel alternatives ................

Re: Recommend me a shed...
I would look for a second hand shed if I was you... I got a 8x10ft shed for 150 quid. Had to pull it apart myself but it meant I got a decent size shed for not to much money.
