It’s been a two weeks since things started to move with the building of the shed the area has been cleared the veg gardens gone which is the sad part of the whole project! My Father and I built it over 30 years ago he has long gone and the garden was a bit of a memory of him and I doing things together.
The block has been resurveyed to make sure the shed is not on next doors property or out in the middle of the road.
Final plans have been drawn up and will be submitted to council at the end of this week I have also organised an electrician to put power to the new shed.
I believe it takes from six to eight weeks to go through Gosford Council so now we wait.

Hi Ray and All….. It was great to meet you and Sue.
It’s nice to meet all the folks on the forum it puts a real person to a user name and makes communicating with everyone in our community a little bit friendlier. I am looking forward to Melbourne we are at Parkes at the moment I have called into the Local Men’s Shed they made me feel very welcome it was great to meet some more woodworker metal worker and toy and model makers swapped ideas and had a cuppa great stuff

I'll watch with interest.

It's always good to get the council to approve what you are doing with your own land

Storage Shed? OMG. What an Idea. Going to shelve that idea for a later time to present to the She.

She is still I dropped my 18 year old super cheap spray gun today and the handle smashed into multiple pieces. She is not at that actually, more so coming home with 2 guns

And shame about the vegi patch considering your dads involvement. Could always name the new shed after the vegi patch??

HI Jamarpa thanks for your comments on the vege garden there will be another one and a quiet place to reflect on things.
I am sorry to hear about the demise of the spray gun I hope your wife recovers from her problem and you live to shop at Super Cheap in the near future.
I think it’s a very good Idea to have two guns with all this crime about the place one can’t be too careful.
