Don't know about the rest of youse blokes and not having been in this situation myself, but I would expect that ownership of said articles or possessions would transfer to the owner of the shed after say, a week?Quote:
"No partner may commence proceedings for application to store articles or possessions without first lodging the plan with the owner, who may consider them on merit but is obliged to indicate that the application will almost certainly be rejected out of hand.
OK ladies
Some heavy correspondence on Code-related matters this fine winter's morn!
Dealing with your input in no particular order:-
1. havenoideaatall. Mate - you are to be congratulated for your enthusiasm. It is clear that you have a fine grasp of the principles of the Code and your blokely status is unquestioned. Indeed, you are demonstrably a Good Bloke. However, in your (as I said, unquestioned) blokely enthusiasm, you have missed the most obvious point. I refer you to the Code: para 3 - Definitions and I quote:-
"3.1. Bloke – a bloke is the owner, occupier and user of his shed."
and:-
"3.2. Shed – a shed is the domain, demesne and realm of a bloke."
also:-
"4.2. The purpose of a shed.
The purpose of a shed is to provide an environment and territory wherein a bloke has total and complete dominion and control and is therefore happy."
This, I believe, deals with the important issues you raise. Thank you for providing another opportunity to demonstrate the effectiveness of the Code.
Incidentally, your point about case law and precedent is well taken. I suggest that this thread, in its entirety, can provide the necessary body of reference for this purpose.
2. Jim, me old Caliban, it's definably a Work In Progress (WIP). To quote your own post: "....a partially complete restoration. It is a broken bar stool." Until such time as it is a complete restoration, at which point it will become a mere bar stool, it remains a WIP. No violation of the Code is at issue here.
3. echnidna. Very good work, Bob. I've added an entire new paragraph (para 11) on the subject of Extra-Bloke Communications.
4. Craig. Ditto. A new section on new tools has been added under para 6 - Tools.
5. Dan. Good work on blokely terms. Duly noted and amendments incorporated. Thanks for spotting the error in numbering. (Craig: tsk,tsk, mate - it's important to get these things right - this is THE Code of Practice).
I attach the latest Code update. Please bring your copies up to date to avoid potential violations by omission.
Col
Thanks Driver, I am aware that the code provided for such a point, but thought maybe we could make it explicit.
Seems to me that any post on this forum amounts to precedent and also forms a body of case law.
Shouldn't there be a link to this forum on each page?
Sorry Col. :oQuote:

(I'm not even going to mention the fact that you used that sheila's word 'blokey' instead of the correct term: 'blokely').
Also, there is no "blokey clause". :confused: Are you sure you're not confusing it with Santa Claus? ;) Al, have you taken to going outdoors without your foilie again? :eek:
OK girls,
I've been using the A4 format for most of the updates but, as those of you who have been following this thread will know, I have saved a version in A5 size.
A5 is actually more usable as a printed version. I find A4 a bit unwieldy, especially in the shed.
Keeping both sizes updated is a bit of a PITA but I'm happy to do that if both formats are wanted. Otherwise, I'll revert to A5 only.
Tell me what you think.
Col the Formatter
Col, I don't think it matters at this stage 'cos I'm not going to print it while it is still being updated so often. :D
Maybe, if it is even finished, a hard copy in A5 format would be good to have on hand, just in case the power fails. :cool:
You mentioned making a cover to suit the A5 version, did you ever get around to it?

Any ideas? Better still, any good illustrations?
Col,
I reckon each shed dweller needs to make his own cover, design and materials used therin dependant on their shed practices. So, a few possibilities:
timber beautifully finished (machine) Major Panic;
timber beautifully finished (darkside) Derek Cohen;
bushmilled timber Exador
timber (silky oak) but unfinished (hinges missing etc) Me :o
Metal covers, cobbled together artfully from assorted car parts, Andy Mac
Leather bound legal volume type Boban
etc etc etc

G'day Driver,
How's this pic?
G'day,
Or any of these?
G'day,
2nd attempt. :)
