the durham digger 127 Posted December 2, 2012 Report Share Posted December 2, 2012 Nets, torch, and i put a small axe in my bag as well for the thicker roots your spade cant handle... the reply about an experienced digging partener is spot on! But the best bit of kit is a couple of good pork pies!! I always have extra tools in the motor such as a bar, grafter, pick and long handled rabbiting spade.... oh yeah and and assuming u have it, your written permission. 2 Quote Link to post
man o kent 269 Posted December 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2012 Thanks again lads. Got the permission, just need the other bits now Quote Link to post
marshman 7,758 Posted December 2, 2012 Report Share Posted December 2, 2012 I know it's already been said but a good torch is always handy . A few times a dig has took longer than expected and it's gone dark and some lighting has been needed. Quote Link to post
