The skeps have arrived. Beautifully made to order by David Chubb- http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/cotswoldbeeskeps/. Our part-time gardener, Norman was completely perplexed by them He thought at first that they might be head-gear, but when he tried one on it was too large. Eventually Margaret persuaded him that they were a handy receptacle to use when weeding and should be worn strapped to one’s back using a purpose made leather strap.
