The new toy report
He loves it! Says it's far quieter than the old one, is quick and efficient
and he had no problems with soft stuff. But, he said, it doesn't cut into as small pieces as the other did. I'm happy, I didn't hear him using it at all and when I looked at the shreddings I was happy too. I'll spread them directly on the ground, the hens will turn them over and over and by next year they'll be incorporated into the soil. Mary |

Kinda falls into the category of "what it says on the tin". -- Cheers, Harvey |

I had some last year - a bit coals to Newcastle but the sack was given to me. It is almost odourless. No idea how it works though. Henure, I think it was called. Not at all offensive to handle either. Mary -- Cheers, Harvey |

Even a little donkey could prove the equivalent of this machine - but it's not a commercial one and is moe than adequate for a garden. I checked it very carefully when I typed it, I guess the 2000 is the revs. No idea what HP is, not Hewlett Packard, not Hire Purchase ... Harry Potter? Mary |

Ah, now I know what you're on about! I have one of those, except I get by with the 1600 version. Boy, is it quiet compared to my old Alko - which was also dangerous as it sometimes spat branches back out again. Since the move I no longer have a need for my Bosch silent, but one never knows what the next place may have! And anyway the stand comes off so it's not taking up a lot of space in the shed. MM |

Erm... ;-) How did you know about the electric plane? He loves that too but only flew it once, wind's been too strong since. Ancient toaster serves adequately, don't peel potatoes. And anyway, I do that, being a good little wifey ... whistles Mary David |
