Using a strimmer or mower is not an option

i'm surprised the gutter is still up

Indeed jimbob

Was a nightmare to do too as the gap was tiny to get all that **** out.

I tried all of my gutter tools I had in the van but in the end found one of these I use sometimes for block paving jobs to try break it up and pull the sods back to me.

Would have to say that was one of the worst jobs I've managed to do as even had to bend the guttering to get the sods out too.

If anyone is interested I got mine from wickes but also sold on fleebay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/like/121190685756?hlpht=true&ops=true&viphx=1&lpid=95&device=c&adtype=pla&crdt=0&ff3=1&ff11=ICEP3.0.0&ff12=67&ff13=80&ff14=95&ff19=0

It's a very handy tool to keep in the van as without it today I would not have been able to do that job for sure.

How much? /emoticons/tongue.png

ive got one of them tools i actually found it in someones guttering

Nice one jimbob :Image13:

Lets just say enough for my troubles tuffers :Image9:

Lol I've never seen that much gutter grass round my way.

Maybe in a dryer period you could have pulled it all cleanly out.

Other useful things to carry in the van at all times is cable ties, gaffa tape and a pair of scissors as you never know when you will be needing them.

Was hoping to do that but the gap was just to small as normally when wet if the gap is big enough is a doddle to do.

That one was sods from hell and pity anyone else that gets one of those to do with such a tiny gap.
