I have tried the last few days to get a billhook as I want to lay the hedge on one side of my allotment, nobody seems to sell them nowadays, I suppose this is the 'nanny state' at work again. I even done the rounds of the boot sales this this morning.
By the way I am a new boy to this forum but have owned several allotments over the years, so hello to everybody. Nice site so keep up the good work.
Hi there try the organic gardening catalogue they have some good billhooks in there and not too dear either ;)
Or old-fashioned ironmongers in country towns?
Dugdales in Skipton are amazing; but that's cos they're near enough for me to go out with the kids one day, and get what I need - got a scythe from them, and they've been great at getting spare parts for the bits I've managed to break.
For anybody else nearby - contact details on http://www.dugdales-electrical.co.
All best - Gavin
