This Sun story was an excellent opportunity to promote the shed.
Excellent job by the chaps who spoke with Laurie Maher and the reporters from the Sun newspaper.
It was unfortunate that in an endeavour to lighten the story, it was focussed on men escaping from home lives. Unfortunate because the men that come to the shed are not about escape at all.. they are there to improve their lives, work for the community and build valuable relationships with other men.
Most women, especially partners of the 'shedders' are more than happy that their menfolk have found productive ways to spend their time, found other men with a common interest and become a part of a team that is building a valuable resource in and for the local community.
We all know that there is no escape at the shed... definitely more jobs to do here than at home but the cameraderie of our peers teaches us, encourages us and supports our lives as men valued within the shed and the community.
