Welcome Sheddie, this blog is about sheds! You can share your shed, or view other people's sheds. If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to our RSS feed.
Everyone does the best posts of the year thing on their blogs, I am just going to pick my favorites… of course a lot is to do with Shed Week 2007.
Well it’s about one year since I started to blog seriously(if you can call it that).
Not sure if I have improved my writing (and spelling, thanks firefox inbuilt spullchuck).
But I seem to be doing more posts most of the time, and as I wrote about it the other month, I’m actually getting a handful of people subscribing to my blog and getting some good comments (thanks alex!)
So three cheers for shedblog and look out for the Shed of the Year 2008, and remember to Share your shed.
Thanks to all the sheddies and everyone who knows me and lets hope the next year is as wossname.
Maybe take a look at the archives.
All the blogexperts, (on their blogs of course), say that you should provide a way for your readers to read the best of your blog in one place
That should improve the way they read your blog and that may also read items that they may not automatically search for, thats great advice if your blog is about “blogging“, “development“, “gaming“, or something else thats very blogable.
But does that really work for a blog like mine thats about random shed related posts.. and not much advice on how to be good at this, that or the other.
Well I will give it a try, this month popular posts in no particular order.
Let there be Solar light (again) Me going on about installing a solar light I bought for Mrs uncle wilco’s summerhouse, as you can see I’m no DIY expert, but it works so wossname that.
Bras invented in sheds Me thinking about Bras being invented in sheds, but that ended up as a surprise as the bra I was talking about was invented in a Cabin, you could not make these things up!
Expensive Beach huts, 2 posts (here and here) related to those seasside sheds., that are in the news at the moment.
2 blokes one shed and an oildrum A great youtube video of a sheddie building an Old drum BBQ.. just what the interweb is about.
If you want to read more of the past then go here. or to view my favorite posts clicky here.
Well I mean 40 39 people read this blog via a feed, for this here shedblog, there maybe more people who actually read the blog via the old fashioned way of a web browser.
OK its not a major number in terms of the interweb numbers, but its a wossname for me and this means that there are people actually reading this blog..
You can get the feed here, or sign up via email (3 people do it that way), or even watch my twitter.
If you dont have a clue what I’m on about, no difference then, you can learn about RSS here.
I use Sage, a firefox plugin to view RSS feeds but you can use google reader or other applications.
No I dont mean set my shed alight with some petrol, bod forbid..
Just vote for me! on the new social blog site thing.
I know we have had a cr*p Summer, but winter will be upon us in the UK very soon….. sorry but it will be.
I have got my bit of broken skirting board out, broken off the bits of last years paint, and will be stirring my creosote substitute this very week… and Mrs Uncle wilco (Auntie wilco) has bought some woodstain type affair for her winterhouse (was summerhouse)
What do you do to your shed to get it ready for Winter..

the Google blogger platform has been great, but I have decided to give Wordpress a go, so the blog is now at
you wont need to upadate your RSS feed
thanks and watch out for any problems!
Most bloggers do a top 10 of this top 10 of that, well I can only find 5 shed blogs out there, i.e. about sheds or written in sheds.
1) http://www.shedworking.co.uk
This is a great blog from my shed friend Alex, it covers home working but with a shed angle, plus his newsletter has a column from me in it!, hes a proper writer where as I’m just a bloke who likes shed/s.
2) http://atoryblog.blogspot.com/
If you like your politics leaning to the right, then Man in a Shed is your man.
3) http://gardenshedhalloffame.blogspot.com/
Some familar looking sheds, and an idea I have seen somewhere else ;), but the writer does cover crafts and make things so thats ok!. Hopefully some of her sheddies will share with us.
A worthy blog about building sheds and the issues with that, plus a great guide to his own build.
5) http://shed-head.blogspot.com/
A shed build in Progess, via the power of blogger, needs to be updated. but worth keeping in your feeds
others worth a mention.
http://www.homeandgardenstorage.com.au/sheds/
More of the Oz shed, but some good tips
http://designersblock.blogspot.com/
A bit highbrow in the design stakes for most sheddies, but some odd posts about sheds
any more you have found, please let me know
Well finally got round to setting up a blog!, oringally wanted to do it in 2003, but as you can see never got the chance, the sheds got in the way.
anyway, I just got one of those fancy new phones Sony Ericsson K800i which has the great feature of sending the photos it take with its 3.2mp camera straight up to blogger.
So look out, I will be posting regulary, but of course it will be mainly pictures of sheds, that i see round and about on my travels.
This blog is a place where sheds can be in limbo, IE before they are shared on readersheds!!..
