I used to get it on my radishes when I was a little boy from the neighbour's larch lap fence. Didn't half burn!Originally posted by zeitghostI knew someone who topped up his engine oil with it.
It's not very lubricating really.

I quite like those Norwegian style barbecue huts. There was one on display the other day at our local agricultural show & I have to say I was sorely tempted. Well, would have been if I'd had 6K to spare.

Really? Bang goes my childhood. A neigbour's fence was done so regularly his whole family and his dog used to smell of it. I am so upset now I will have to go to the garage and eat a bit of asbestos board from the roof.

<-----Shedhead too.
One is over 40 years old, 2500mm by 1900mm and in ecvellent condition due to being made of good quality timber and having an annual croesote treatment, the other is about 15 years old and falling apart due to it being made of poor quality timber.
I went onto the Dodge City website to buy some creososte last Sunday. Angered that the search engine offered every other timber preservation product other than creoste I wrote them an arsey sarcastic note. Fortunately I didn't send it, because while seeking an alternative supplier of the comestible I found that creosote has in actual fact been banned for non-professional use since 2003

Will the Mayor be opening it?Originally posted by Doggy Styles View PostI've just replaced my shed with a robust and roomy twenty-footer. I'm currently doing the electrics, security lights, interior cladding and the other bollocks.
If it doesn't burst into flames on final switch-on I'm thinking of getting a coffee machine.

According to your criteria, I'm definitely a shedhead. My garden shed is the only place a man can get a bit of p and q in this household.
