Can anyone recommend a paper shredder that works (£ is a factor, as usual). The
two I've had are great at putting rows of creases in the paper! It wouldn't take
a S. Holmes to read it afterwards though.

I've bought three Fellowes ones (for different places) and all have
worked well. The things to look for are as follows: you choose these and
balance against price.

* do you need to shred credit cards, CDs, or staples? Different proce
bands here.
* duty cycle - how many sheets at a time (be pessimistic, as mine here
says 7 sheets at a time but I wouldn't do more than three or four - and
how many before waiting for it to cool down.
* width of strip - 6mm is rubbish and not secure. Go fo 3mm.
* cross cut - MUCH better to get this as it cuts the long strips into
little pieces
