A Bradshaw-Pewsey, eh, and a top-loader too. I never got to play with a whiffler myself, but in my youth we had a neighbour who whiffled. A Bovington-Perry, I rather think. On summer evenings you could regularly hear him at it through the hedge.<br /><br />Yours in gardening,<br />Ken.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4552926065883640725.post-22957430637640896882014-07-11T13:32:22.254+01:002014-07-11T13:32:22.254+01:00Yes, I have several, one petrol-engined and the re...Yes, I have several, one petrol-engined and the rest clockwork.<br /><br />Wayne Facker<br />NooBroomz<br />GlossopAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4552926065883640725.post-25212355311478307412014-07-11T12:51:31.767+01:002014-07-11T12:51:31.767+01:00I am interested in purchasing a motorised deep-thr...I am interested in purchasing a motorised deep-thrust crevice brush (steel and nylon options).

Not one of those nuisance plant-type entities dared poke its little green buddy head above the parapet with one of those around. Which of these - the Snerk Confobbulator or the Sprote Whiffler - was better for rounding up dried peas and pointing them in the right direction? Any ideas?<br /><br />Raymond Goolies<br />ThirskAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4552926065883640725.post-65692305902889518432014-07-11T11:00:29.433+01:002014-07-11T11:00:29.433+01:00Fascinating stuff, as ever.

I'm not mechanically minded, but as it happens, the other day I found, under an old tarpaulin at the back of the shed, a pretty fearsome-looking bit of kit which turns out to be a Bradshaw - Pewsey 10hp sprote whiffler. Knowledgeable neighbours tell me its the early 1979 top-loading model and could be worth a bob or two.<br />Cheers Ken,<br />Alan Droan.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
