Ring Out The Old, Ring In The New
One of life’s great curveballs has been thrown at Forkhandles.info! Originally naming my gardening services after possibly the greatest comedy sketch of all time (One Legged Tarzan shades it for me but I know I’ll always be out-voted), Forkhandles.info was set up as the site for gardening services throughout Sussex. Having had to close the business down due to the onset of rheumatoid arthritis, I took down all the gadening content and made the site dormant. I then got a call from my friend who hosts the site to tell me that the page impressions had gone through the roof from people searching for the original sketch.
As a lifelong fan of comedy (especially radio), it seemed the obvious tranformation, so please join in with my nostalgic ramblings, starting with a brief introduction to my discovery of this incredible heritage.
And, Of Course, The Inspiration!

Just a quick thank-you to all my previous clients _ I hope some of you will stay and enjoy this very strange detour!
