  1. Our Sunday allotment trip was a mixed affair today.

    It was very pleasant in the sun and we got a lot done.

    But my strimmer motor burnt out - I was wondering what the smell was!

    I'm increasingly unimpressed with Einhell tools. This is the second strimmer of theirs that's died. The other one seems to be a relay that's not working, but how to get into the gubbins?

    I've hurt the card and ordered a DeWalt replacement. Hopefully paying for a quality tool will save money in the long term (ha!)
    The charger and batteries were a significant extra cost.
    But the strimmer does get a lot of hard use there.

    It's only money....

  6. I've finally been getting around to some spring pruning and putting the Stihl battery-powered secateurs to the test. You can read about how I got on and my verdict on the blog: bit.ly/4rylAvu
    (Ad. Sent secateurs to trial. Not paid to post.)
