shed foundations!
Typically, as soon as one wall in place the Typist (so-called) has added a temporary floor and somewhere to snooze...
The foundations are under the shed so people won't trip over them, with a concrete slab on top - amazingly, all four are level at the same height above sea level (for how long, I wonder ... it's built on sand ...)
A better view of the foundations ...
