For a small structure my shed performs many functions Practically it functions as my Painting Studio but rather more fantastically I have decorated it in the style of a Chinese Tea House inspired by such follies as the one at Sans Souci in Potsdam Over the past year I have also begun transforming it into a memorial to my late whippet Rag It also houses my collection of cacti and succulents It is in a beautiful spot overlooking the River Thames and once a jazz band performed on its deck
