New teddy bear shed




There is a new teddy bear shed under construction as I type! we are building a new house at East Burra, down Meadows Road, and are including a big new shiny Workshop for me, although I will always refer to it as the 'teddy bear shed', it will have a lot more room to work and a small shop area for visitors, something I don't really have at the moment as my current 'shed' is way too small. We are down by the sea and will get fantastic views over Papil and out the voe, I can't wait, I am soooo excited, hopefully we will be in by the end of the year, here's a sneak preview....


This is the view from the window of the new 'teddy shed' or will be the view once the big pile of earth has been removed!
