Is it worth buying a mantis?

[veggiechicken]

I think it might go something like this ^^^ "the same could be said of a man, but they come in handy sometimes" - hard hat time

Can you buy a Womantis? Or a Persontis? Just wondered.............

[Thelma Sanders]

Womantis - Mantis ................one's the 2stroke and the other's the 4 stroke.

Make your own mind up which is which

[bearded bloke]

If you got a lawn full of moss the de-thatcher alone makes it worth having a Mantis Beyond that,ALL of the above.

Who snook that in

Believe it or not MBE reminded me that they hadn't put it on the website yet so I prodded a few peoples and bazinga.

A mattock? We use ours loads - I think they're brilliant. Your arms and shoulders do the work then, and not your legs. They make potato trenches a doddle, and we've cleared many an overgrown and gnarly bed using them. This is a bargain Silverline GT52 Digging Hoe: Amazon.co.uk: DIY & Tools.

Don't tend to see many people using mattocks, despite me constantly singing their praises.

How the heck did you do that? That's one of the 3 tools I recommended on my last course...the exact same make and model I showed off to the gang...

[binley100]

I know someone else who does.......

There's a guy at work who has just taken on a lottie , I asked him how it was going and the answer was he was waiting to get it rotovated ......why do people think you can't work a plot without it being rotovated . I hate rotovating nearly as much as weedkiller........
