Don't tie it so tight, Tim. Or perhaps you could try wearing a button-through one - or even a tabard. They're still 'only made for ladies' but at least they don't tie at the back.)  ;D ;D ;D ;D

Left myself wide open there!

Meant, of course, the b****y handles on the machine!. Not designed for 6'4"!!

The apron? A real one. Ties at the front. Not the usual gardening garb. Just left the washing up to do a quick dig.

Aerators? Must hold a party on the lawn?

Washing up? Even the kitchen sink is too low for me.

Handles? The Mountfield is much easier - & they swing from side to side.

Tim the kitchen sink is too low for me now, it was the perfect height when I was younger XX Jeannine
