A shed that walks (honestly)

Those of you with good memories will remember our profile of N55's walking (shed)house. Those of you who were sceptical about its ability to move should take a look at the video above. More details from their site.

Choosing a shed - Whitmore Garden Features

Whitmore Garden Features makes handmade wooden toys, trellis sheds, gazebos and other shedlike atmospheres. Above is a shepherd's hut-style garden office which, like the other products, is made using locally sourced timber from recognised sources in the WGF workshop (which visitors are welcome to drop into). Below is a children's gypsy caravan playhouse. Very pleasant.

Stone shed?

That's what Shed Style is wondering. What do you think?

Garden office security

Security is one of the key considerations for any shedworker. One of the experts in the field is Gardien Garden Security, an internet-based company who also run English Garden Antiques and have considerable experience in the field (their security director Mick Gains has decades of experience as a police officer and has been awarded the Queen's Police Medal for services to Crime Prevention). There's plenty of information on the site about shed security, insurance and even a consultancy service. Well worth a browse.

It's a nice day for a white wedding (shed)

It's the best start to married life, a reception in a shed. As reported in the Norwich Evening News Tristan Scott - a director at the family's shed-making firm - had secretly been building a special white 'wedding shed' furnished with sofa, flowers and champagne (and heart shapes on the shutters. What a sweetie) to surprise his bride Sara after their wedding in Horsford. It was a difficult surprise to keep quiet as the Evening News explains:

"Keeping the shed secret from Sara proved especially difficult for the Scott family, as she works with Tristan's mother in the office of the Horsford workshops. Tristan said he had to pretend he was clearing the decks before the honeymoon when he sneaked off to make the shed on Sunday mornings over the past month."

Mobile shedworking: The Royal Family

Shedworking has featured plenty of mobile shedworking possibilities and among those who enjoy some third place working on the move are members of the Royal Family. According to a detailed report in the Daily Mail, Prince Philip uses it as a mobile office as does The Queen herself and Prince Charles has a particularly elegant desk. Here's what Brian Hoey in the Mail says:

"The sitting room has a sofa with hand-stitched velvet cushions, armchairs and the small dining table where the Queen and Prince Philip have breakfast. The table can be extended to seat six people. There is also a desk in one corner where Her Majesty works on her official papers. Even on the Royal Train, after a full day's engagements, she spends an hour or two working on her 'boxes'. These are the red cases that go with her wherever she is in the world, containing official documents from Government departments, both in the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth, that have to be read and initialled."

Naturally, officials of the Royal Household work on board too.

Jack Williamson: shedworker

Writers have always been at the forefront of the shedworking revolution. Tip top science fiction writer Jack Williamson wrote in this wooden shedlike atmosphere above (more photos at Scott Edelman) which he built himself.
