A SECOND World War buff has created his dream man cave - by building an Anderson Shelter at the end of his garden.
Trad Casey, 58, has kitted out his retro retreat with a bed, a comfy chair and all the wartime essentials including a gas mask, a first aid kit and a tin hat.
He has also stocked up on some tasty old-fashioned supplies - and often takes cover there when life on the home front gets a bit much.
Trad explained: "My daughter comes home in the winter and my wife and her will be nattering away and watching the telly.
"When that happens, I could go up the pub and spend a fortune, or sit in there and have a few drinks. It's surprisingly pleasant.
Spam
"I've got a wood burner in there and on a really cold night in the winter, I'll sit in there and have a couple of pints and cook some spam on the fire."
