I have a front tined beast, 5hp. It's fairly well behaved but needs to know who's boss. My mother has a big Troy rear tine, which I'll eventually inherit. Can't see her pushing it when she's 100  :wink:  :lol:

Hey frankie,

Allways have a target, and if its a mole a shotgun to blow its blooming head off.
Sometimes I think laterally but then I have to get up!

I am thinking that some people are not intrerested in the equipment section and might only ever go to the grow pages. If a poll was run about recycling in fugal living, I would never see it. But I would think just about every one likes to visit the growing pages.

I have a lovely little mantis.  sadly its never been used (by me) because I took it to a shop to get a service and I haven't been able to contact them since either direct (turning up and banging on the door) or by phone.  fortunately it was second hand so its 'only' 200 quid down the drain and not 350 or more for a new one.  so I use a fork and spade now!  cheaper and better exercise.

Were you never able to track it down, Crowndale? You should have reported it to the police as 200 pounds is nothing to sneeze at regardless.

I am surrpised at how many never use machines on their plot. Even when I had the small allotment (60' X 20') I would have struggled to find the time to dig it over by hand.
