It's not Spring yet, but we've noticed that people are keen to be outdoors sprucing up their properties fully prepared for spending more time out doors.  We're well past the Winter Solstice and we're fast heading for the Spring equinox  so as the days lengthen we'll all be spending more time outdoors. Not that they are just for gardens and patios though clearly, they 're just as good at blasting away of that winter road salt on your car, van, caravan, trailer and the li Read more...

JUST IN! Bang on time for Christmas, our consignment of Santa-red garden trollies has arrived.  We do stock a broad range of colours but our seasonal red colour has arrived just in time. These are designed as a garden trolley to help out in the garden but we've found that they have taken on a life of their own in some respects and have become general transporters. These are brilliant transporters for getting the kids out and about on winter walks and general seasonal shenani Read more...

ALLOTMENTS: DIG FOR HEALTH,  HARMONY AND COMMUNITY The rise in popularity of the allotment garden has been steady for the last decade or so but dramatically increased, especially since so many people have given greater consideration to the benefits that gardening has in general.  Allotments are a simple extension of that, or an opportunity in their own right if you don't have a garden at all of course.  Applying for an allotment couldn't be easier. They are usually manag Read more...

NOT prime gardening time - but making sure you machinery is stored well is vital. As we move into late Autumn many machines that have done their service through out the active gardening months will be going into winter storage.  A bit like a lot of wildlife, they are going in to hibernation, ready to Spring into action in the new year. It's no big drama that's for sure, but like much in life, a simple action in forward planning reaps rewards - or at least means you'll g Read more...

Brand New Manuals for PPPW2000 and PPPW3000 ParkerBrand offer a range of water pumps which have become very popular over the last few years. We though that we'd take time to offer a wider view of these machines with some useful information that you may need to know before buying or indeed for when your pump arrives shiny and new! Although simple and straight forward enough, using a water pump does require some key points of method and we'll focus on those here too. The f Read more...
