Weirdest "utensil" in my plot

[dexterdoglancashire]

Let's have a little competition! (sorry no prizes!) as to the weirdest "utensil" for want of a better word, we are using in our plots!
MY OH had the back bumper from his Merc replaced 12 months ago (someone damaged it!). It has been lying around since then.....Suddenly thought! I could use it as a "frame" for a cold "frame" in the spring!
What's your weirdest "utensil"? DDL

I'll be doing something similar with the shower doors we took out of the bathroom earlier in the year. In fact they are already on the lottie waiting to be used as a tunnel.

I was going to use the old rabbit hutch sunk into the ground for my blueberries but we are now getting guinea pigs who will need it. This was only because using the old bath removed as above was ruled out by Mr E on the grounds of the amount of work that would be needed to sink it into the ground. He obviously thought he'd be doing all the digging.

There's an old Tesco's shopping trolley lying abandoned at the end of the allotments!

Thought about dragging it to my plot and using it as a portable rubbish burner or makeshift wheelbarrow!

That would be stealing by finding, Snadger. Why not take it back to Tesco's and claim a reward!

Youre are joking are'nt you. My OH founf two tescos trollys earlier this year and rang to let them know. He had to threaten them with littering before they would send anyone to collect. Far feom a reward they were highly indignant at being put to the trouble of having to send a van to collect them.
Reward,,, i don't think so.

I use an old set of pram wheels (the sort with the big wheels and good springing) to move my straw and chicken feed and such like around the chicken area! Saves the old legs!

You could always line it, fill with compost and plant - could even stick flowers thru the sides like an enormous floral display - in fact you'd probably win an award if it were on one of the gardening programmes

What a good idea martini - "best shopping trolley basket" award! see what Tesco said then! DDL

Used to do my paper round with an old pram many moons ago! Easier than having two large newspaper carrying bags slung around my neck!

Suppose if i was delivering papers now I'd have a Tesco's trolley!

"You stand here in front of the dock accused of 'stealing by finding'".."How do you plead"............."Guilty m'lud!"..... "But there are extenuating circumstances"..."Yess"...."Said Tesco's trolley is battered, rusty and has a wheel missing"....."Thats no excuse snadger" ..."Well you try pushing it through downtown geordieland for 5 miles, because I'm sure i aint!!!!" ..."You leave me no alternative, you shall henceforth be taken from this place to a place of execution......
