[QUOTE="Lazarus, post: 1020162, member: 323322"] Shed Load is another expression which has acquire a meaning rather different from the original. A shed load was, back in the day, a grammatically correct phrase describing a load (eg Lorry Freight) that had come adrift and, for example, was blocking the public highway. Nowadays, it appears to be a volumetric measure of anything, based upon a common garden outbuilding, in much the same way as Wales has morphed into a measurement of land mass. [/QUOTE]
