Today I christened my Chillington digging hoe...what a difference to a spade.....no back ache. :icon_cheers: :icon_cheers:

I have the next size down from this one and have used it this year rather than a hoe. I have found it much quicker and do not ache as much. I also have the Canterbury hoe - all brilliant tools.
The best hoe in the World - ask any African they will all agree.. It is the only hoe that every african uses.
They are great aren't they :drunken_smilie:
(Though mine is a Silverline!)
I suffer from lower back pain, and digging is not my favourite past time, but having tried this yesterday I must admit I'm a convert. :happy7:
