 - & call me a wimp, but at my age, height & top-heaviness, I find it almost impossible, & quite hazardous, to stand on a ridge of fluffed-up soil & lower a spud into a 5" trench.

So - 5 year old came up with this. All the spuds are now in!! = Tim

Tim,
Can you get the 5 year old busy on 3 more limbs, head and torso please!

Thank you for the permission to laugh - I'm making thorough use of it (colleagues looking at me strangely!)  ;D
