Discover the other hundred shed-based activities... (Fathers Day Gifts)

The smell of creosote the jars of reclaimed nails and screws the long-vacant hammer-shaped hole. The world of the shed is packed with sights and aromas that only a native of the habitat can truly appreciate.

But are such people really getting the most out of their chosen environment? It's quite possible that they are not, in which case Rob Beattie's new book, 101 Things to do in a Shed could change someone's life for the better.

And since the shed almost exclusively a male preserve, it's a book that could solve a lot of people's Father's Day Gifts woes.

The book is written entirely in the print version of male-speak, which is a blend of words, line drawings, illustrations and arrows.

It guides the shed lover through dozens of projects, tasks and opportunities that only a well stocked shed can offer.

One reviewer admitted to developing a desire to actually go and live in a shed after reading it from cover to cover, and although this was never Beattie's intention (six weeks is the absolute maximum), it speaks volumes about the potential at the bottom of the garden.
