Go ahead, you can laugh!
My dear husband John is taking his penchant for reuse and recycling to the extreme on this one. The old wash house from our rental property up in Papakura wasn't moved off with the house a few weeks ago to make way for construction of a new medical centre. It was destined for the dump as they work to clear the site. John came up with the bright idea of putting it on the trailer and bringing it to Piopio. Surely we could make use of it at Struan Farm for something or other. Seems we don't have enough old sheds, do we?
That being said, Karen doesn't have a shed for her gardening tools, etc. up at the new(ish) house. I've been running stuff up from the garden shed at the Homestead as/when needed, although we do have a rack for spades and rakes in the garage. This little shed could fit the bill on the edge of the tawa grove in the backyard, subject to considerable refurbishment to get it up to my exacting standards. Yes, already thinking about paint colours, so watch this space!
