    A coarse one. B&Q got Spear & Jackson hardpoints on offer just now at £10 for 2. Worth getting an 8 point for this works and a 12 for fine work.

    Not long enough. 20 or 22" to get a decent stroke.

    Edit: Just realised that I could have been looking at a completely different website with that answer...

    She had already referred me to Trading Standards when I became a super member. That didn't last long did it?
