     Yes Felco are very good. Ask a loved one for a pair for Christmas.

    Hi Bekkie

    If you Google them - you'll soon see that you won't lose them.... 

    They're attached to a back pack to house the battery etc so you look like you're going hiking when you're just nipping out to dead head the roses image

    A bit overkill for my garden (and, I suspect, for Wakou's too image) - I'd rather have a chain saw  - timberrrrrrr....image

    Heaven is ... sitting in the garden with a G&T and a cat while watching the sun go down

    I have a pair of Felco no 4, which are annoying for professional use as no easy blade tensioning nut. I had a pair of no 2 but lost them in a 2 tonne pile of compost and haven't recovered them yet. Am now using no13, the big ones for big hands, I prune a lot of roses and Buddleja so the tougher the better, I have broken many cheapos but never any of the Felcos but have replaced blades and springs and the odd nut!
