Getting mud off your boots.
Spud grater
Back scratcher
Bike ramp
Shield to play medieval games with
Cable tie 4 of them together to make a garden bed
Straining the veges
Possibly even as a recovery tool though that might be stretching its use somewhat

You could be right, but the "n" is next to the "b", so it was not too much of  typo.
Hey Speewa, I said "nog" by mistake, you could have just put "Egg" in front of the "nog"and you would have been happy.

You could swing it around your head like a great big bullroarer to warn people to come and get you.........or warn them to stay away....either works.
