Lidl 4-in-1 petrol multi tool

Lidl 4-in-1 petrol multi tool http://www.lidl.co.uk/en/our-offers-2491.htm?id=879

Did not expect it to be up to much but after using all 4 tools today I can honestly say it was bloody brilliant for so little money

Thought that 4-in-1 petrol muliti-tool might come in handy as I've just been asked to clear this back garden for a friend.
Might take a wee while.   :o

All the same the pruner (mini chainsaw) attachment will come in handy to cut down the trees and shrubs right back.
The headge trimer, strimmer and brush cutter attachments will defo come in handy too.

I hate bloody gardening at the best of times but to be confronted with something like that I defo will still be  putting in a big bill even though I'm doing it for a friend.

Take this seriously good advice from someone who has the video, tee shirt and DVD. Leave well alone.

Get a professional garden clearance company in and bung 20% on their price you gain all ways

1.  You don't have to buy a crap machine from Lidl thereby saving money on that!
2.  No waste to dispose of when you clear it and that's the hard bit! 
3.  You make 20%!
4.  You keep a mate!
5.  You earn money doing something else your good at and have pro equipment for while the pro garden clearance people sort it!

You will thank me in the end if  you heed this advice or wish you had listened if you go ahead.

Trust me!!!!

Thanks Kev for the advice.

I have no intention of doing garden clearance again for a living but I've done one or two over the years so I do know what the craic is. Still sometimes you don't have to spend a fortune on pro branded tools to get the job done all the same.

Now where did I put me crappy chipper? Oh I know with all the rest of my crappy tools in me lockup  ;D

Why didn't you pressure wash the slabs you lazy sod?  You might as  well start offering garden clearance as an add on now you have the gear😂They have Wet Vacs on offer this Thursday!  I would get one of those next cos they are only £59.99.  You might as well fill your van with crap now you have started ;D

I will have you know I've been to aldi today  ;D ;D

Same bulldozer broom in aldi £7.99  not £14.99

Regards cleaning the slabs and paving that would be extra as I don't do  freebies even for mates  :-*

Funny you mention that vac as the titan one I got from screwfix started billowing smoke. Took it back last week and got a full refund so I'm after another small one for the odd jobs about the place.

You spend more time in shops than my daughter does and that in itself is a real achievement  ;D ;D ;D  Or have you got an Aldi and a Lidl across the road as well?

Kev I detest shopping like most fellas and only go when I get nagged at/told by the missus or need to pop into a store to pick something up for myself which is very rare.

We have a few aldi & lidl shops dotted about local so I don't need to go out of my way as usually pass one or the other when I'm out and about. I honestly can't remember the last time I've had to go into the town centre to buy something.

Most these days tend to use the tinternet anyhow to browse and buy stuff online. For instance without the tinternet the likes of gardiners would not be the success they are today.
