Title: C5 Shed
Post by: Umpa on 23, August, 2009 - 18:35:54
As many know I keep my beloved C5's out side, in the rain - in the wind - in the snow.  I have been looking for quite some time for some kind of shed that the c5's can live in.  The problem has been that the sheds have been either to big for the space that we have - or to small for the c5's.

Today I have found the perfect shed.  Its from B&Q made of the very same plastic of the C5 & (with a bit of a shelf yet to be made) - will fit both C5's in. 

Now I can relax as our C5's are safe from the elements.

Here's the info about the shed :- http://www.diy.com/diy/jsp/bq/nav.jsp?action=detail&fh_secondid=9371802&fh_view_size=10&fh_eds=%3f&fh_location=%2f%2fcatalog01%2fen_GB%2fcategories%3c%7b9372012%7d%2fcategories%3c%7b9372017%7d%2fcategories%3c%7b9372061%7d%2fspecificationsProductType%3dplastic_sheds&fh_refview=lister&ts=1251046108583&isSearch=false

And (as always) here's a pic of it

Wish I had seen it earlier,I have just ordered a shed.
The advantage of these sheds is,you can put them all over the garden!!!!!

Looks like a good way of keeping the grotty weather off the c5  ;)

I have made a ramp so I can push the C5 on the top shelf - I'm very happy with this solution.
