As I have said before I try to balance my time on the computer with time gardening on my allotment.
The other afternoon a neighbour showed me a hoe of the type used in Africa and the West Indies.
I had a go and found it so effecient in terms of effort that I decided I must have one.
He didn't know what the hoes were called so I tried heavy garden hoe in my search engine and in a short time found something called an Azado Hoe. This is the Spannish name for it but it has a different name for every culture it is used in.
It had turned up in a site selling garden tools - ten minutes later I had bought one and had my order confirmed by email.
I am more exited about this than my new Skype telephone.
