On the Eighth day of Christmas ..

On the Eighth day of Christmas my allotment gave to me ... Eight spades a sharpening!

Take advantage of a lull in the growing period to look after your equipment! I always admire a gardener who has lovely shiny equipment... You must keep all your tools in good working order.. Sharpen your hoes, your spades and your scythes. Are your tools in good working order?

Well, you try to find something that rhymes with milking !!
