and this, when you have mastered the art of using it with a

You can obtain one for about £10 or less from most garden centres.

Its fun to make your own. Obtain the twigs and handle, bundle the twigs
then wrap around with stout wire, then sharpen one end of the handle and
force this end into the middle of the bound end of the twigs.

Or you could steal my wife's one. Be careful she doesn't catch you though. I
