When you finished reading this try to stop laughing and remember i do really love my bike so its not all bad.

well here goes.
for the last 4 weeks ive been building a shed in the garden, gotta to be honest its a bloody big shed, the plan was to have it as a rep shed.

i insulated it with real sheep wool that i got cheapish, plaster boarded taped and jointed then decorated it in what i think is me snakes favourite colour lol, got all the air circulation, lighting, spot on. set up 4 vivs 1 in each corner and monitored the heat for 3 weeks and they were all holding.
i put heating in the shed and its holding temp same as my living room.

i even put a freezer, radio, and my favourite calander in there.

now i made it really secure, the windows are double glazed and the door is a top security door.

then i came in doors looked out the window admiring my work and thought, if some little toe rag wanted to get in there, he will do all it takes to succeed, so i bottled it and put me motorbike in there, the snakes are now being moved, all i gotta do now is take the cupboard out from under the stairs and build some nice units.

good job im pretty useful with a drill and chisel lol

Haha Put some photos up of it anyway. What about putting in an alarm? Many venomous keepers do this with their outbuildings.

I'd not sleep at night - I worry about my babies when they are safe in the house never mind if they were in the shed

Now all you've got to worry about is that the neighbours don't section you for insulating and decorating your shed for a bike

I wish I had the energy, lol. At least the bike shouldn't freeze up in the winter too easily ;) and you now have a little sanctuary
