If she doesn't mind second-hand -- which is sometimes nicer as well as
cheaper -- car boot sales are worth checking.

Depends which allotment shed they were nicked from.


Oh, dear! I really am an innocent little thing: I hadn't thought of
that.


I'm afraid it's the first thing that went through my mind and we have
neither an allotment nor experience of car boot sales. We do have
experience of the sneaky lowlife who stole a hedgecutter from us a few
years ago, however.

and if anyone wants more proof of the low down life who will pinch things
from an open shed or garage, I had a projector I use for talks pinched. I
had to buy a new one for a talk I gave to a WI a couple of weeks ago. A
Sander, a new Jigsaw in a case and a couple of Black and Decker Drills in a
superb carrying case. Back gate unlocked, Garage unlocked ""We never have
trouble here"" until now. The trouble is that my gardens go through to the
road behind and that is where my garage is :-((

If it can happen here on the Isle of Wight, it can happen to YOU ..........
THERE.

LOCK YOUR SHED AND GARAGE.

Mike
