Silverline Mini Round Nose Shovel
Good reviews - says good for keeping in car for snow and worked well - so can't be too small !
* Mini round-nose shovel
* Ideal for work in confined areas
* Useful for deep holes and ditched
* 500 mm
review......... I bought this to keep in the car in view of the bad weather: its perfect, very solid, much better than the folding type that have weak joints that break, and extremely cheap (I dont know how it can be sold with free delivery at this price!).The shape is a compromise between a spade and a shovel, its certainly strong enough to dig with, and while its not large enough to shift huge amounts of snow (you wouldnt want to clear the drive with one...)it is perfectly good enough to clear tyre tracks.Buy one, put it in the boot and forget it: it'll be there when you need it, and you will be pleased that you did.

A 'nose shovel'?
I thought that was what one used for cocaine?The atmosphere is currently filled with hypocrisy so thick that it could be sliced, wrapped, and sold in supermarkets for a decent price and labeled, 'Wholegrain Left-Wing, Middle-Class, Politically-Correct Organic Hypocrisy'.0 -
Thanks for posting that. I have ordered one to put in the car. The price was back to £3.71 this morning so it is worth another look for the people that found the price had gone up.0
-
Yep, just got one for £3.71. Bound to come in useful, even if it's for building a snowman! Thanks OP0
-
Ordered one thanks. I noticed they gone back down in price after last night0
-
Still in stock at 3.71, got one this time round, estimated delivery. 30 Dec - 4th Jan. Here's hoping putting this in the car will jinx the snow from coming back lol0
-
Yes I thought about the delay in delivering but looks like we are getting more snow to come and its always best to be on safe side isnt it?
I may get a car battery charger as I do short runs a lot although I try and not use car much when its bad0 -
Thanks for that still £3.71 so ordered 3 for kids to put in their car boots just in case. :j0
