Does anyone still have this lying around the house?

Husband was very interested in the offer for the long-handled pruner/hedge trimmer thingey, but we were too quick with the recycling and forgot to take down the details!

Can anyone help? Would be so grateful!

Many thanks.

Penny,

Have you had a look at the Guardian online?

Penny,

Just back from going headfirst into the recycling bin. Looking through it now.

Do you mean the one at £199.95 - advertised at a saving of £100?

Petrol powered Long Reach and close work.

Yes, Elizabeth - that's it!!!!

Is it possible to give me the necessary info so that we can order it?

Penny,

I can type it up here, or you could message me your email address and I will scan you the advert and send it.

Penny,

Thanks for the message. Do you still want the advert from the Telegraph - which I will send if you want, or is the above link enough?

The link works - and husband confirms that it's the right one!

Thank you so, so much for your help - we have a very large garden and this will be an absolute boon. We are ordering now ...

I had a feeling a GR member out there would come up trumps.

Many thanks.

Penny,

When your husband has finished your hedges, I have a long leylandii he could have a go at too! We went down the road of having a platform affair and the normal hedge trimmer, together with an electric chain saw!

Happy clipping.
