Digging is nobody's idea of fun. Nor is weeding. Nor is watering when
you have dozens of containers demanding twice-daily irrigation

to a tap timer and save days of your life? My timer has a sensor
attached which detects rainfall and stops the irrigation program when
Mother Nature is doing the job. Only a Luddite would say no.



I wouldn't be without my rotovator. It continues to do a colossal amount
of work. I wouldn't contemplate turning the amount of veg plot I've got
using a spade - my back aches just at the thought of it! I've been there
and done that all my life on smaller gardens. As I'm getting older being
bent double doing a lot of digging is a no no.

Now if someone could invent an intelligent weeding robot that would be
brilliant. Ideally it would be inexpensive and would know the difference
between weeds and flowers / vegetables and could just be left to roam
and return to a charging station when it had finished weeding.
