Bed size?

I'm sure you can find a scaffolding board that's fallen off the back of a lorry............or, how about strapping big pieces of wood to the bottom of each shoe then you could move you shoe-planks with you wherever you walked..........like those tennis racquet snow shoes the Eskimos wear.

I'm not too enamoured with the woodchip paths as I have had dealings with them before. They tend to get very weedy. The beauty of them though is that once they have composted down a bit they can be flipped onto the beds. I think I would just stick with comapcted soil paths and run a hoe along them as required. Weeds give up after a while.
