A vine in first growth

More bean planting before the rain arrived. Took delivery of my new stainless steel ‘tools for life’Dutch hoe. Came via an Italian firm from the Netherlands. Took an absolute age to find it.

It does look real quality - hand forged and with a bevel the length of the 14cm wide push blade. Cost a bit but no more than UK tools with customs duty slapped on them . More or less. Give or take. A nod is as good as a wink ... and all that.
