I deduce the two sheds down the back will stay.
Now I'm suffering deep shed-envy.

When I sold the business (did I mention I retired on Monday 9th?  :grin) I lost my shed.
This Friday I take delivery of a garden shed, and when that's in place, I will get to work on a replacement workshop/shed.
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

Congrats on retirement Biggles - Yes we will pull the skillion down and keep the old shed as a rustic BBQ area  :beer

Great shed. Should be named Man Cavernous.

Congratulations on the retirement Biggles.

Got room here in St Helena, but may depend on size of van, and driver’s reversing skills.

There's plenty of space length wise, width is approximately 2.6m.  I better go and check.

This what you got to work with:



Use to get our old van down there easily, but that was an older, narrower type, and my skills were shyte.

What I'll do is park the Ford Ranger in there, take a pic and also get a proper measurement.

Now that the silly season is over (Navgirl reckons it's never over with me ) I have got back to this
With awnings & hot water tanks and the like my van measures 2510mm wide

Just measured paling fence to brick wall - 2650mm.

Mmmmm, 140mm clearance, if you're good enough you can get it "in", but then you won't be able to get "into" the van (if that's necessary).

It's good that a man knows his limits.  Yeah, put the question out there again, if a better option arises - all good.

In the meantime (and there is plenty of it to Nov), a good mate has some rural acres just north of Whittlesea township, I'll ask him.  To provide some context: https://goo.gl/maps/XgDW2VALfQ42.  I'm in St Helena, at the blue dot about halfway.

I thought I'd listed our place here, but apparently not. With the National rally coming up later this year some members might like to extend their stay in SA.
Glenalta SA, southern foothills 12km from Adelaide.
Shed and tools. Up to 2 bedrooms with Queens/Double (depends on when our son's house renovations finish and his junk gets moved out). Walking distance to railway station (with bonus free travel if you have the Seniors card!!).
PM or call

Just to clarify, anyone with a valid Australian state or territory seniors card can use Adelaide Metro for free for 14 days in a row, under the same time and fare rules as South Australian members. This excludes National Seniors Card, Seniors Business Discount Card and New Zealand SuperGold Card.  You'll also have to take you card to one of handful of places to collect your 14 day pass.
