Hi Toby,
When we moved house,my next door neighbour an ex Garnett Eurotrans owner driver finding times hard, I asked him if he wanted my old shed as I wasn’t taking it with me,he jumped at the offer came round dismantled it and took it.
About 6 months later my wife and I were waiting outside the cinema one evening waiting for the doors to open,when up pulls a brand new Rolls Royce out gets our old neighbour with a stunning girl at his side, I shouted to him and he came over,I said you’ve done well for yourself ! He said remember that shed you gave me I renovated it and sold it for £600,with the money I brought a bigger one renovated that and sold it for £1200,then brought one for £1200 and sold it for £2400, and so on. You got the Rolls and all the trimmings by doing that I said,no he replied last week I won the lottery 
Regards
Richard

When I worked at F&F Robinson/Rosier in Stockton there was a young van lad used to nip across from the bakery over the road for a brew, he was always full of get rich quick schemes and the one that finally struck gold for him was when he bought a couple of ice cream vans from Yarm car auctions.
