    See original post

     but what would I lean it against?

    Hi Newb. Snap with the side access, no hostas but hose/bikes and bins a plenty. An ideal spot for hidden stackage ?.

    Square gardens are no excuse Dove, you could measure mine with a set square and I've got tons of hidey holes (as evidenced in previous photos). PP compared it to a famous optical illusion, and she's right, it's all down to distraction ?

    I have shade only at far end of garden and i am too lazy to go there (60ft) for watering and slug hunt so i kept all hostas in sude access. Hopefully they create enough distraction ?

    Oh i try to look after my plants, though not as much as they want me to. What i ignore are the pavement, weeds, garage and all the mess i create in the process of gardening.

    Dove, you must lean it against something that would render areas of your house or essential equipment inaccessible. You could then lob stuff into it and eventually, you can reach the fourth level of sloth whereby you buy something you know you've got already, but can't be bothered to look for.

    Newb, you could be describing my garden shed...  15ft retaining wall & steps down into garden.  Shed on flat (ish) bit, with useful 14" gap between it and retaining wall.  Sorted!  image

    Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.

    B3 I do like your solution. I am already in the the fourth level of sloth. CBA to look properly I have just bought another mobile charger so I have now found the original in the top drawer.

    That's the best way of finding a lost item. Buy it again, the original Will turn up after you've removed the new item from the packaging.

    I have asked DH to not to search for anything at all. After his search, he never bothers to put everything back where they were and there is no chance of finding it for him anyway. In fact I also struggle to fit everything back and have to find a new place for some items. no idea how they had fitted while piling up image
