Hi, I wan't to turn the rainforest I have outside into a garden, though I know nothing about gardening and don't have a lawnmower or anything :S

Anyway I decided the first step was to knock down the shed and get rid of all the st that was in it so does anyone have a van I could possibly borrow for a day(and if you want to help me feel free wink) for money/beer...?

Cheers

Either of the above would be great thanks smile Shimmeys might be the best if he would be driving is though as it saves me having to try and get my ridiculous insurance company to add a temporary vehicle which was an absolute rip off and PITA when I did it last year just to MOT one of my cars! smile Plus the extra hands would come in useful biggrin anyone is welcome to join in, in fact I hear hammering sheds down can be therapeutic...is anyone stressed at the minute? :P

I also enjoy the delights of sledge hammer and axe destruction if more help is needed, depends on when though smile

I am in the middle of another horrible week at work, but assuming I'm not still asleep on Friday I can pop over to help if it's needed.
