Sand Scoop

Post by 3tone »

Hi Everyone
Found this container in a well known store in Norwich( am I allowed to say wich one) for£7.20.Thought it might have the makings of a long or short handled scoop.
(12.5cms wide 16cms long)

Hi Jimbo, I got one of those and it's the bees knees. The only problem I have with it; some small items drop through the holes. Could do with one with smaller holes.
