The Shed is Erected
15-Sep-2006
After three days of construction I have completed the garden shed. I wish to acknowledge the assistance of the one-legged duck, who left markings indicating where I might screw the parts together. The foundation stone is inscribed with a message from the Australian designer: 'no worries, mate.' You are all invited to the opening ceremony on Sunday afternoon at 2pm.
Mind you. I don;t know if it will still be erect by then. The metal is so thin, if we have a high-pressure zone overhead it'll probably crumple into a heap.

and that's the reason my ex - welder and Grand Poohbah of the Secret Men's Business, Shed Culture - loathes those dinky little things
Glad you passed the Austrlian Citizen's entrance exam, Russ! If you can't erect a shed, you're no good to Australia ;)
They might look flimsy, but it sounds exactly like a shed I've had for 16yrs and dragged around to 4 different houses. They're much more durable than they appear.

That one-legged duck is very impressive. I keep thinking its name is Harvey.
Go the Sheep!
