Just got me a new garden fork, spear and jackson, 10 year guarentee, wood handle, stainless stell blades. All for the grand sum of £8
If you want to be happy for a short time - get drunk.

If you want to be happy for a long time - fall in love.

If you want to be happy forever - take up gardening!

Thats where I have been going wrong, I have never had a fork that posh!
I thought at least 1 tine should have its own opinion!!
Very often quite lost- would be more lost if I could work out where I was!- But always find my way home.....

 :ohmy: Even mines not THAT bad.

I popped over today. The all wooden V handled SS felt really flimsy to me so I grabbed the plastic handled "Grow Your Own" CS fork.  Plenty of rakes, hoes and swoe's in the Halesowen Makro, no spades though  :(

Thanks for this tip Jamie... shame my nearest Marko is 23 miles away...

I might also be just a bit late... forgot to look at the date of the post!  ::)
