Kevin our long term member is leaving due to a relocation to sydney.He was presented with a Kincumber Mens Shed Shirt,a certificate of welcome to return at any time,as well as a mounted model of a lawn mower with the inscription "we will bloody well miss you" from the men of the shed.We were often cheerily greeted by kevin on arriving at the shed by "how the bloody hell are you".Kevin's specialty was looking after lawn mowers and outbord motor repairs.He was also of great assistance in fund raising.GOOD LUCK KEVIN & JAN.

mucking about in boats

Shedders can build anything ...

Here are some photos from the successful launch of Alan Eaton's boat.

Another triumph for both the Shed and Alan. There was quite a crowd of onlookers about for the successful launch. There were also plenty of hands around to move the boat down to the water.

Alan is quite proud of this sturdy little ship and expects that the family will have a great deal of entertainment on the water "mucking about in boats".
