A Happy Mans Home is his Howf

A Howf: A favourite haunt,a meeting place.

There are a lot of these huts/cabins/hiding places near the harbours in Fife and I am sure there will be almost the equivalent at many an allotment.

Official requirement is as a shelter for when the weather turns and perhaps to keep your tools.
Real reason, a place to hide, (from the official ,should be doing something more useful world),.
You put on a fire (obligatory),have a brew, judge time when needed,not by the clock and have bad reception on your mobile phone..
Chat with other real world fugitives and judge a chair by its comfort, rather than its looks.

Yes a place of refuge,possibly the last male bastion.
(exceptions accepted- although not in the Howf!)
