I am thinking of getting one of those Asus EE PC for writing in the shed and web browsing.

Have any of you sheddies got one, what do you think of it, any tips etc?

Also I would use it for reading books and the like one of those Amazon Kindle

but as I have to wait until it comes out over here in the UK, I think a ultra portable machine would do.

You would think I would want sheds things, but everyone buys me that sort of stuff, be it the Shedmen (of course I would love Alex’s book next year!), postcards of sheds, shed mugs and the like, which is great, but when I have 2 or 3 copies of the stuff it gets a bit wossname.

What I really want is a new camera, Canon EOS 400D to replace my existing one.

My camera still works fine as you can see here, but it’s been over a year since the 400D launched so its about time I adopted, the 10 mega pixels is the winner for me..

Anyway amazon are doing an offer at the moment by Canon EOS 400D Digital SLR Digital Camera and get a Camera Case and a SanDisk 2GB Compact Flash Card FREE.

Now is that a big enough hint Mrs UW?

Having the Windup -Radio guru Trevor baylis as a judge got me thinking..

We need a radio for the Mrs UW’s summerhouse, so I had a good look round the web for one, but the new clockwork ones are a bit flimsy looking, so I watched a few old school Baygen ‘Freeplay’ Clockwork Radio on ebay as they looked the job.

I won one and when it arrived I was shocked by the size! but in a good way, its going to be a great addition to the shed, sorry, ladies retreat.

It sounds great BTW, just need Trevor to sign it for me!

Just to say this Friday (19th October) It’s my birthday… I will be 36 of your shed years… I may not be about, so thought I would tell you now!

Just to say this year has been one of the most interesting I have had, what with a new shed, shed week and of course Tony’s roman temple, and my brush with the celebrity shedbrush making my year.

Lets hope the next 36 will be as eventful.

and of course if you want buy to me something
