Tin of doom

I'm a designer, me. I like design that's straight to the point. Economy of line and type. Less is more. I don't think I could have done my job very well in the Art Deco era or at the height of Victorian frothery. That's why I love this tin, which we saw at the Museum Of Garden History last weekend. Completely justified the six quid it cost to see what amounted to a small collection of old rakes.

'Slug Death'. Marvellous. And I've even got to the end of this post without typing 'does exactly what it says on the tin'. Oh.

Ace innit? I'd like to shake the designer by the hand.
