The item number at Tesco Direct is 202-2071 but it says its a discontinued item (blimey it was only in the most recent catalogue!!) so you might be able to resist after all

I have a lovely ice scrapper with a nice big warm mitt covering the handle... MSE and environmentally friendly!

Sorry if i spoke out of turn but the thoughts of more rta's scare me, there are too many as there is.

I've got de-icer in a spray thing rather than an aerosol - looks like blue Mr Muscle spray but is more environmentally friendly, and gets my fingers working in the cold by squeezing the trigger!
