    Nuclear fallout shelters are the way forward. Once you seal that hatch, no amount of apron clad housewives, brandishing rolling pins can force an entry.

    I got mine from gardenbuildingsdirect.co.uk loads of options available, reasonable prices and an absolute doddle to put up, or you can pay them and they put it up for you. If you have a basic tool kit and half a brain, save your money and erect it yourself.

    bought a shed off the web, ****ing nightmare to put up as it came in so many different pieces that I had to assemble the side, front, back, roof and base before I could start putting the shed together.
    If you buy a shed make sure the sides etc. are already made as a one piece unit then putting it up is a doddle.
    Fully lined mine with chip board the hung all my tools up etc., split it up so I have all my golf gear separate as well.
    Make sure your first job though is to run power to where your putting the shed up.
    Funny how my shed has started to collect ****e from the Mrs when she has ran out of space in her garden shed and greenhouse :headbang:

    I'm lucky, mine's built of bricks & detatched from just outside the back of my house.
    Mind you, it's full of **** & you can't get on the bench to do a job.

    Is that not just an outside toilet?

    My Mrs just come over and said "Why has Billy 'Cattlemole' got a picture of a pair of feet in heels as his profile picture"... that was slightly awkward for a few seconds.

    No it's definitely a shed. Or an outhouse if you're posh.
    I like my avatar. I doubt I'll ever change it unless somebody chooses another one for me.

    I am thinking about building a log cabin in April, about 25 foot x 12 foot. they are on youtube and brilliant. Kitchen work top all way and cupbords round as well. They are about £1400, but I can build anything with my tools, putting a heater and strip lights in as well, have a radio on match days. B & Q do some canny ones.

    Don't forget to put a door on it or you won't be able to get in or out.

    Or he could build it around himself without a door?

    Would need some padded walls installed however...

    That's what I was thinking... nobody will hear him with the radio on either.

    Just shop around and find one that suits your space and requirements, but check out the specifications before you buy.

    Why not get an inflatable one. You could have an inflatable woman in there and pretend you are having a seedy affair.

    Surely the more awkward question was "why do YOU have a picture of a dog stuffing it's head up another's arse as your picture?" <laugh>

    Buy a portocabin. Saves all the ****ing around. If you cant fit one in, make an igloo.
