Make a planter out of it! I'm serious! That's what we do here in Texas!!

This shot could have been taken just around the corner here. Nice.
J. Scott Coile26-Oct-2007 14:21
Looks like it once served well!

Aaah! A small cylindrical bar to fit between the wheel will do the trick! Unless no one likes to do any gardening anymore ...? :-)

Oh Maire, I have a similar one, less paint but still has the tire. Nice shot and composition!

LOL,Maire, even your faithful old wheelbarrow has a green frame!No major surgery required to get this patient back to good health!:o)
Phillip Normanton25-Oct-2007 21:12
Ah yes, my car's due a service too :)

I can just hear my Mum - "make do and mend" then it'll be as good as new.

It only needs an axle, great subject.

Fill it with dirt & grow petunias in it...will last a few more years !!
Guest 25-Oct-2007 16:48
what a pityful sight...well captured.

we came close to binning our old wheelbarrow the other week, we got as far as the rubbish tip and a guy there also binning rubbish came over and asked if he could have it! heheh

Agree with Bev, make it into a planter they can look so good!
Guest 25-Oct-2007 12:36
Nice find! The rust is a good touch- and the wheel? Very nice.
Jola Dziubinska25-Oct-2007 09:52
Ohhh...sad story.
Dave Hein25-Oct-2007 09:48
Look at all that green! Go figure.
Barbara Heide25-Oct-2007 09:41
it's kind of sweet!
Makes me think of poor old Molly Mallow!
...and she wheeled her wheel-barrel through streets brought and narrow...
nice shot!

A good barrow would be worth its weight in salt for a worker in times gone by.
Maaike Huizer25-Oct-2007 09:01

Ian York25-Oct-2007 08:41
