Regarding those manual lawn aerating machine things that you push along,
spikes on a roller. Are they any good and do they make the job easier?
Or
is a garden fork just as effective? The machines are on sale at B&Q right
now and I wondered if I should buy one.

Thanks.

Bought those lawn spiking sandals (on impulse) last year but haven't
finished screwing the spikes onto them yet :-)

In theory you just wander around the lawn improving it as you go.

Anyone tried these?

If so, how fast did you move and how often did you sprain your ankle?
