A humorous appreciation of 12 handheld, horticultural and building haulage carriers - captured within a Luxury Calendar. Each illustrious wheelbarrow is accompanied by a brief synopsis. For example, in the month of May, you are treated to the formidable presence of the Boadicea: ‘Who would have believed that the ancient Britons’ love of gardening would lead to their eventual downfall? Archaeological evidence lying beneath well-cultivated topsoil reveals palisades of canes and cascading rain butts to rival any Italian garden. This iron-clad chariot’s final role was to transport vegetables to the battlements to throw at the Romans during which, it is believed, the wheel fell off. A Turnip Too Far, Professor Phil Bucket.’ Also included for each month are handy little reminders. For example: 26 April - ‘Take barrow for a spin up and down the garden’ 22 November - ‘Oil wheel axle’ Scroll down and marvel at the sheer splendour of the wheelbarrows included within this unique calendar. February, September and December are linked to larger images. Calendars measure approx. A4 (297mm x 210mm).
