Rear-line Rototiller Needed

I need a rear-tine rototiller capable of tilling heavy clay soil. Anyone have one in their shed they wish to part with?
Can't be seized...I already have one of those.

Anyone Missing a Peacock?

Very pretty peacock, been at my place all day and seems to be staying.

Island Bikes or Kayaks for Rent?

I periodically get requests from our B&B guests to know if anyone on the island rents out either bicycles or kayaks. If you do, would you let me know, and I can let our guests know? Thanks.
