Hi Ade , well said about the items merely "en route" to the next time it might be needed , I have lots of this stuff about and in the big 'master plan' most of it will be used ......one day :clap:. To confuse matters more about sheds and workshops , I call the metalworking shop the garage and the wood working shop the shed :scratch: , mainly so I don't confuse myself :thumbup: Cheers Mick |

Hi there, all, I think it depends on who your talking to. As I suggested in my Tin Shed Project thread, I don't think it's a good idea (this is in the UK) to use the word 'workshop' in an application for Planning Consent - there's a danger the Planners will think you're going to import noise and pollution on an industrial scale into a residential area. Best to call it a 'garden shed for domestic storage and hobby purposes'. Actually, if you take account of the origin of the words, you could validly refer to it as a 'laboratory' i.e. a place of work or activity. Nowadays, we use the term 'laboratory' narrowly to cover activities like academic or other scientific or engineering research on a professional scale (a 'boffinarium'!) but it might not always have had such a narrow meaning. |
