I think that's a fair complaint.  Flowers rarely just 'appear' in a garden; there's usually some thought, expense and work involved.

So after going to all that trouble, you don't really want them wrecked do you?

It's a hassle & time consuming pain, it's these things that make wfp harder work than trad sometimes! Snag, walk back, bend down, un-snag, walk forward, snag again, walk back, bend down, un-snag again & again & again & again!!! >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:(

But, you're right

You manage to get the hose round the corners and then you look back to see hoses caught around the wheels. >:(

Dave,

get the 35 litre omnitrolley. @£200 it's a steal. And you can sneer at the tyres & wheeliebins as you trot past them. I use mine just for this purpose.

Kevin

I make a point of turning wheelie bins around so hose don't get caught up around the wheelie bin wheels.

A tank full of algae is probably safer than the offer of a cuppa from some of the specimens I visit  :-X
