Everyone has resolutions and the majority don’t stick to them, is it too early to post them?

So I am going to have a largish list so I at least have half a chance.

• Try and raise as much cash as we can for the Shed Week charity Bletchley Park (more on that soon)

• Get more people to Share their unique sheds and those journeys creating those sheds (sorry had to get all xfactory on you) for Shed of the year
• Feature more of those sheddies on the shedblog in the My Sheddie Spot (if you want to be featured let me know)
• Redesign readersheds, been saying it for 4 years, but you never know it may get to “Web 1.5″ soon.
• Visit and meet more sheddies in the flesh like this and this
• Drink less real ale but better quality ales from independent brewers and concentrate on writing about them instead of just pictures.
• Brew my own shed beer (was supposed to be done for xmas, but a few months out) watch this space.
• Take my camera with me as much as I can, mobile shots don’t do sheds/beer/dogs justice.
• Develop more of my domain names and ideas so 2010 could be the year of me working from the shed instead of for the man (women in this case)
• Cook more fish and home grown veg
• Learn to play the ukulele like my hero Fin (ok maybe not)
• Don’t believe the hype
• ends

Anyway have a great NYE and see you all next year.!

Well another one of those list posts – I used the Wordpress Plugin Popularity Contest to get the list.

Of course the hits are mainly down to you the sheddies popping in to read up on the “shed news” and wanting to know more about Shed Week and Shed of the year 2009 and not my tip top SEO ninja skills.

I am a little surprised that International shed of the year post came first, but looking into it a lot of US sites linked to it, so that pushed the figures up.

The We love lady sheddies and their lady sheds was a recent hit as it was a reply to Suzi Perry on twitter and she re-tweeted it.

The others are more practical posts about things getting done in your shed I will have to do more of those in 2010.

Recently we have had some different and unique sheds added to the Just Sheds Group, Great stuff.

I just hope the owners Share them on the main readersheds.co.uk site as they could be potential Shed of the year 2010 winners

nicked from Alex but love it

Feeling safe is not necessarily being safe.
We feel protected and secure in surroundings that
are familiar to us, where we can control the
space around us – physically or psychologically.

The Daily Shelter is a table inspired by my grandfather
Sigvald Andreas Brandth. He was an inventive designer
who based many of his ideas on excitement,
humor and secrets.
And just like his many designs, this table has a hidden story.

At first glance it looks like an ordinary table.
But for the one who knows its secret, it can be
transformed into a shelter where one can hide from
scary sounds, ghosts or family members.
Just like a snail feels safe in it’s house.
