I still think it's the best bit of kit with an engine.

yes John there are a good workhorse i seem to have inherited 4 merry tillers and when i bought my new tiller i traded 3 of them in because they needed some TLC I've still got 1 that was my Dad's  I just can't seem to get rid of it ?

my son spent some time putting it back to use but I've never used it for some years now it must be around 40 years old i suppose when i go it will probably end up on the scrap heap  :(
