So how’s the year been for you? I know, you’re tired, it’s been a bit tough but you’ve made it. But now you’re ready for a break, huh?!
Well, our lovely friend, Yvonne, co-founder of MadAboutBubbly.com is giving away a week long stay at her gorgeous house in the Champagne region of France, in free and easy to enter competition!
A perfect excuse for a pre-Xmas get away, you can relax and enjoy the splendours of Champagne, where you can also collect the bubbly to go with your Christmas lunch…much more exciting than trawling the supermarkets.
During the postage strike we will only be using Royal Mail for very small orders, i.e. single nozzles, trigger parts, nozzle backing washers etc etc.
Any larger items will be sent by courier pack, and will require a signature upon delivery unless you specify that your parcel can be posted through your letterbox or left in a safe place.
Unfortunatley, cost of this service is higher and so a minimum postage rate of £5.50 will be applied to all orders.
(If your order is a small single item, as per first para of this post, we will adjust the postage back down)
We have made this change as during the recent one day lightening strikes held by postal workers, the number of items missing or delayed has risen from about 1 per month to several every week. We do want our business reputation to suffer due to matters beyond our control, and once the postal strike is over and backlog of mail is cleared we will revert back to our normal postage methods.
We thank you for your understanding.
For items outside mainland UK, charges will vary and we will notify you on receipt of your order.

For control of perennial and annual weeds and thistles.
The product needs to be diluted with water, and a 1 litre bottle will cover between 2 – 3,000sq metres depending on the dilution rate required

In another charity event, 175 combine harvesters simultaneously cut the field, and easily gained a new Guinness World Record, beating the previous record of a (now seemingly paltry) 57!
The feat was achieved in Platin, Duleek, Co. Meath, Ireland on Saturday August 15th 2009, and is set to raise cash for various charities - Barnardos, The National Rehabilitation Hospital, Gary Kelly Cancer Support and Self Help (Africa), and organised by a group calling themselves Combines 4 charity
Quite a spectacle! As one commentator asked, ‘were the pubs shut in Ireland that day?!’
A group of brave & beautiful farm girls have stripped for a Charity Calendar in aid of Cancer Research uk. The girls, from various North Devon Young Farmers Clubs can be seen wearing wellies and wide smiles and not much else, as they go about daily farm tasks.
The girls hope that the calendar, sponsored by North Devon Journal , along with Farm & Cottage Holidays, the Student Association at North Devon College as well as Winkleigh, Shebbear and Buckland Brewer Young Farmers’ Clubs, will raise £2000 for the charity.
If you are in North Devon, the calendar is available from the New Inn at Roborough, the North Devon Journal offices on Roundswell Business Park, Barnstaple

Hurrah!!! We are going on holiday from 21 to 31 August.
You may continue to order online during this time, but NO ORDERS will be despatched, and no phone calls or emails will be responded to.
We have had a very busy and quite stressful year, what with rebuilding the website twice, due to hositng company failure; and dealing with a large upturn in business, which is great! But now we need a rest……………
We trust that you will order in advance of these dates if you already know your requirements, or that you will be patient upon our return!
Some Knapsack Sprayer manufacturers will be regretting their decision to decrease production, as suppliers stuggle to find stock to meet customer demand!
Those decisions, made earlier this year in response to the economic downturn, coupled with INCREASED demand for both sprayers and parts, means that many models and their associated parts are in very short supply.
We have had some parts out of stock for over a month now, and with long continental holiday shutdowns, factories are unable to provide any firm dates for replensishment.
We will of course advise any customers who order parts that are out of stock and will suggest alternatives where appropriate. You are welcome of course to contact us to check availabiltyby emailing us sales@agratech.co.uk and we will do our best to help you!
