We have a country store near us that has a range of equipment but it is on the pricey side.

When starting out, I ordered from Robinsons, they do a good range of yard equipment and are pretty reasonably priced. If you order a load from them, I'm guessing your P+P shouldn't be too much.

Can I admit to lol when I saw your post

??

Only about 30 days to go ......... so that'll be about 30 posts then

And anyway I might manage 2 posts a day so there nyah!

Off to look at Robinsons.

If you want to get rubber matting have a look at polymax. I have just got mine from them and after trawling the internet found that most places charge £40-50 per 6x4' mat plus delivery. Poly max charge £30 per mat which is a huge saving. I got 6 for 180 rather than £300!
Their website is www.polymax.co.uk and have a good selection of designs. I had the compact stud.
I have to agree that robinsons is the cheapest for this stuff but I tend to use rideaway as it is better quality. (buy cheap buy twice is my moto)
You can get a really nice wheel barrow from B&Q for £40 and buckets for 99p if you dont mind orange I also got a metal shovel from B&Q and it was only £7! and a broom for £3! Good quality stuff designed for builders so will last!
Have fun shopping

I can highly recommend this company for mats http://www.horsemat.co.uk/Bubbletop%20Mats.html they are cheap and very good quality, in fact my friend purchased some at the same time as me from another supplier at £40 per mat and mine are far superior to hers and I think I paid about £22 per mat!!

B&Q or similar for brooms, buckets etc.

Robbies too.

Gotta say if you can afford it, go for Equimats. They are a little more expensive, but so much lighter to move around than the black mats and as they fit together like a jigsaw, they don't budge once down. Oh, they come in green not black

!

B&Q have the plastic Wheelbarrows on offer at the mo if you don't mind having a bright orange one!

Bought my wheelbarrow from B&Q much cheaper than other places, some stuff from Robinsons, tuff tubs (skips) online and the best broom I've had from our local garden centre for £8.99.

I bought my wheelbarrow today from Focus its Green and was £29.99 and I love it.

Strange isnt it some people need Holidays in Florida or World Cruises and then some of us are just soooo hapyy with a green wheelbarrow but then it has got a pneumatic Tyre
