    My tutor at college advocated always carrying vodka for this purpose, though was very specific about it being cheap and nothing you'd want to drink ;)
    That's just what he's telling you .... :D
    Ah - should have added the bit about the hip flask containing the 'good stuff'... Let's just say that his favourite drinks were discussed enough times that we knew *exactly* what to get him for Christmas 🤣🥃

    My secateurs get an occasional spray with WD40 to keep them lubricated. Someone, no doubt,  is going to say that it will damage plants but my 40 year old secateurs are still going strong and my plants have never shown any problem with it. It does a stirling job at keeping them clean too.
