Speaker 2: the next great idea is alluding me still for three
Speaker 2: years in this house.
Speaker 1: It's also where the German shepherd uses the toilet.
Speaker 2: Poo's in there. It's just a dumping ground in there,
Speaker 2: right And I said, this is it I need. I
Speaker 2: need an office in the garden. My wife said, we'll
Speaker 2: at the only available space. Yeah, I'm going to have
Speaker 2: a shed like a going to have Basically that's all
Speaker 2: I'm allowed. Down the side of my house is an
Speaker 2: area that's been allocated now for me. I'm going to
Speaker 2: have a shed in there.
Speaker 1: Down the side, not even in the backyard. There's no
Speaker 1: room in the backyard. It's down the side of the
Speaker 1: house where the hot water unit is.
Speaker 2: No by the way, the bins are. I will literally
Speaker 2: move the bins aside, like the back cave where it's
Speaker 2: like a hidden entrance through The bins are only being
Speaker 2: inspired by the grass cutting. Some dog turds feel the
Speaker 2: need for radio and inspiration.
Speaker 1: And then they go, I bet you're not building it.
Speaker 1: You're getting into someone to build it.
Speaker 2: If I build it, it's in the news. I'm trapped
Speaker 2: in it. Outrage of that Christian was trapped in a
Speaker 2: shacky mate that the unibomber's cabin or something I can't
Speaker 2: build that could even hang a picture. I'm building some
Speaker 2: kind of shabby, old, cheap shed. I'm going to buy
Speaker 2: from Bunny.
Speaker 1: So they're gonna make it look like a part of
Speaker 1: the house or is it gonna be.
Speaker 2: Cost of fortunes to drive up blend and sculptured it.
Speaker 2: This isn't grand designs.
Speaker 1: It would be like a summer house.
Speaker 2: It's not going to be like that. So you're talking
Speaker 2: like a shed budget I've been given it's literally a
Speaker 2: couple of hundred bucks. I must just go to get
Speaker 2: a tense you're gonna, I know what, You're gonna end
Speaker 2: up with one of those.
Speaker 1: We've got one one of those metal sheds that you
Speaker 1: buy it Bunnings. You can wrick yourself. It's gonna be
Speaker 1: so funny, that's right, like.
Speaker 2: A whipper sniffer in the corner. Old paintings, off cut carpets,
Speaker 2: and they mean a sad little desk.
Speaker 1: We've got one of those for the paintings. I can
Speaker 1: tell you now, you're gonna be so hot in summer
Speaker 1: and so win. There'll be about four days a year
Speaker 1: where it's perfect temperature.
Speaker 2: But I'll be separated from the noisy chao or something.
Speaker 1: Oh no, this is Sarah's plot to just get you
Speaker 1: out of the house.
Speaker 2: I'm okay pushed out that way. I'm willing in this
Speaker 2: murther idea, right. I don't know whether because people would
Speaker 2: have had to work out and improvise home working spaces
Speaker 2: due to COVID, and I'm guessing some people, because not
Speaker 2: everyone is back to work at their office now five
Speaker 2: days a week, you're probably still doing some kind of
Speaker 2: homework in wherever that is under the stairs or in
Speaker 2: the garage or wherever. He might even be working out
Speaker 2: of a shed at times. I'm thinking about buying like
Speaker 2: a rust bucket of a motor home and just keeping it.
Speaker 2: And I'm not choking, right, it might be cheap in
Speaker 2: the miner's shed and having like a base made just
Speaker 2: park out the front of my house and using it
Speaker 2: as a as a as a stationary office, like breaking
Speaker 2: bed's that big, but I mean I could interview guests,
Speaker 2: I could use as a podcasting hub. Surely that's a
Speaker 2: that's a professional.
Speaker 1: Neighbors going to think of that. The guy on the street,
Speaker 1: the Lovely street as well, tree line, straight Street.
Speaker 2: And there's a guy morning, I'm going into my office
Speaker 2: a motor home, obscuring all the views around there. The
Speaker 2: residents would complain.
Speaker 1: But I think you would get more work done in
Speaker 1: the motorhome than the shed. So if anyone's got a
Speaker 1: free motor.
Speaker 2: Home, please, I'm happy to sell a couple.
Speaker 1: Of hundred bucks on the line.
Speaker 2: If anyone has got some kind of shabby mate do
Speaker 2: home office as well, I'd love to hear about it.
