Thirtysomethingness
Apparently, buying a shed - and arguing about where to put it - is a very thirtysomething thing to do. According to A, anyway. So, if A's word is to be taken as law, I am now a proper thirtysomething. Oh joy(!)
To cut a very long and boring story short, on Wednesday, we're having a shed delivered and installed. Oh yes, we are paying double to have it installed by professional shed people rather than getting one from B&Q and figuring it out ourselves. Stupid? Too late.
This is partly because we live far away from our Dads, and when I asked my Dad if he had any advice about installing a shed on a hill, he just looked at me as if I was mad and then laughed loudly and said "DON'T." It is also because whether you are on a hill or not, installing a shed seems to be really complicated and may or may not involve drilling into concrete, and seriously, I don't want to go there. Ever.
So Wednesday is the day I become an official thirtysomething. I just hope they don't think our hill is too hilly and impossible for a shed because sheds are far more complicated than they sound. Trust me.
Plus, our BBQ goodness partly depends on it (if you think we're just getting a shed for a laugh, you'd be mistaken). Would you believe that today is the 7th of JULY and we haven't had a BBQ yet?! I can't either. BBQ Man would be appalled!

Well I want a BBQ invite! Must have a shed christening party, at some point in the next 10 years. :P
And still LOL @ your "disagreement" over shed. Methinks where you're going to put it is the total wrong place, and it should go the other side. :P
