If the Army Rumour Service can be said to stand for anything it is violence, sex and sheds with some boring stuff about the military here and there so where better to review Beach Huts and Bathing Machines, since your beach hut is basically a shed painted silly colours but without dangerous sharp things and huge spiders.

As you may be aware, talk of sheds is banned over on the ARRSE because of a disappointing incident involving Bad CO, a Hillman Huskie gearbox and a lawn edger in a shed many years ago. As a result the Sheddi Forum is hidden from view and accessed by invitation only. A bit like Longdon Bar but with rather fewer advertisements for soft furnishings and Pamper Weekends. So it is with great delight that I am finally able to discuss my passion in the open by reviewing this book. That is a passion for sheds. Not soft furnishings and Pamper Weekends sites. Don’t get ideas.
