Show us your Turbo training torture chamber!

Here's mine. Basically a rather cold, damp garage with a turbo, some rollers, a laptop and an iPod to keep me going.
Needless to say I don't particularly like spending time in there on the turbo or rollers but it's handy for when I can only fit an hour in before or after work.
On a side note, I did my first TrainerRoad session since last winter this morning. I've decided that doing the 8 minute test without any breakfast in me is not a good idea

Thats the thing, the better the environment, the more I'll enjoy the training. I could have thrown my trainer up in amongst all of the st in my garage, but I wouldn't want to go in there. I'm currently in the middle of painting the walls, floor and boarding the ceiling out before putting some better lighting in.

I've got a laptop, but I'm tempted to find someone throwing out a really large old CRT TV. Theyre worth nowt, so might as well make the most of it!
I bought one about 5 years ago, to come back from an injury and whilst I used it to rehabilitate, I didnt enjoy it.
Sitting on there listening to music staring at my garage wall was pretty soul destroying purely because I needed t
Some visual stimulation to go with it. I then bought a good trainer a couple of years back and I bought DVDs to train with. Its made the world of difference, along with analysing my performance and having some kind of structured training plan. I just need to get back into it all now.

Hang on a minute, I think I'm on to something here...
May I ask all you chaps to acquire this kit?
If you use it all year round, you can simulate bad weather with a fan and the missus chucking the odd bucket of cold water over you.
That way, I can get on with my work and hooning without getting held up all the time.
This sounds like a win:win situation to me, what think you?
