Signs of impending wintery leanings

Leaves are turning orange and dropping from the forest pansy tree. It's darkish in the morning, winter's coming all too soon. The tenderstem broccoli seedlings have been planted, as have the silverbeets for a good supply for wintery shepherd's pies :)
I have been a busy Nigel building a garden shed, like big gnome's Lego almost. I must admit I did read all the instructions and watched a video before (yes indeed) I started. All went well, took a Saturday afternoon and some of Sunday to finish. I filled all the holes and gaps with expanding foam to stop things growing up through the floor and rats and mice getting in.. Then I lined the whole thing with sheets of plywood to give lots of wall to hang things from. It even has an LED battery light for urgent gardening in the dark. The shelves were from the old waterbed sides, what a good use for them.

Shed of wonder


Full of stuff


A home away from home  :)

The shed was a Duratuf GL65 bought from Mat and the helpful team from Mitre 10 Whakatane :)
