After some advice from handy DIYers. I have an old shed, it's an unusual size, say 40cm x 150cm, and about 170cm tall. It could be a handy size for a small garden. However, it's bigger than I need, so I've been clearing it out to pass it on, but in doing so have found that the floor is rotten, as are the bottom two planks. Is it salvageable? I hate to throw something out if so - the rest of the structure seems fairly sound although it needs a few smaller repairs.


Anyone fancy a shed DIY project?? Or should I just give up, smash it up and take it to the tip?


Next question then - anyone planning a trip to the tip soon who wouldn't mind taking some extra stuff along, possibly a shed?

Ah, if by short you mean height, I did say it was about 170cm tall! 40cm is the depth although having measured is actually 50cm, so it is quite flat, designed to run along a wall rather than stick out from it. At 150cm wide I'm not sure it's big enough to be a bike shed? Maybe I'll try just taking the bottom out and seeing if can be used that way.

    • I would leave London, or at a push move back to north London. In SE London if you want to get away in a car you are trapped, always an hour to go the first 10 miles, chugging up to the M4 or round the south circular, which is really just a line someone drew connecting a load of roads. and I know there are trains but first you have to get to those mainline stations, unless you only want to leave London to go to Kent. which I don't. 
    • It was you who  made it personal in the first place,  Jazzer. You said you didn't feel safe in the streets,  and you said you didn't go to Central London because you didn't feel safe there. So are you now saying that wasn't "personal"? "Fire from the hip." Another interesting choice of words 🙄 I'm not "demanding" anything! I asked you some perfectly reasonable questions in  response to your own statements. None of which you have answered. Never mind. It seems to be pointless having a discussion with you. It's long past my bedtime. I'm going to turn on my sleep app  and go to sleep 😴💤
    • Hi Forumites, This afternoon someone in a dark blue/black saloon car collided with my parked car on Thompson Road, SE22 9JR. I have a neighbour’s doorbell cam footage of the collision at 14:30 19/09/2025 but am unable to identify the registration plate. If anyone has footage of a car travelling down Thompson Road towards Crystal Palace Road at that time please PM me. Of course if the Perp would like to confess they can also PM me. Thankyou.
