Depends whether the "mower" rotovates the lawn like it has its home beyond the arch!

Sheep will cut closer and neater, and are more acceptable for the post lawn cutting BBQ.

Otherwise good effort

Most mowers have about 3.5 horse power. Looks like that has only one





How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?

Must be a Suffolk Colt, surely?

Just make sure you clear up the pony (and trap) before SWMBO gets home

I recon if you bought another two items of Argos (Assault Course range) garden activity items you'd have the lawn covered. J.D.

When I suggested getting a lamb to SWMBO and having an October BBQ to recycle the mower she went ballistic.
I even pointed out that she could have a new hat and gloves.
Women! Go figure.
