Many years ago I worked with a bloke who was fanatical about his lawn. Fed it, weeded it, scarified it, aerated it. It was a masterpiece, up there with bowling greens and high star golf greens. He only wore slippers when he walked on it, the kids and wife weren't allowed on it. He even had a special vacuum cleaner for picking up the loose clippings the mower bucket missed.

About 12 months after he had it perfected it his wife left him and the 20something two kids went with her.

He couldn't fathom it.

Ungrateful gits!

Bet wherever they end up they wont have a nice lawn to look at! :lol

In fairness it probably wasn't just the lawn issue.

His wife was allowed to open the freezer once a day. If the kettle was boiled, the remaining hot water had to be put into a thermos for later use.

He was a smashing bloke to work with a top rate electrician, but by f**k he was an anal nut case!

:lol

That last few seconds was kind of satisfying:nenau
Does it have GPS to know where it has and hasn't been. Or some other trickery?

 

[Jay666d]

Yeah, GPS.


GPS and Black Magic!


I can't get over how well it gets all the grass from such a random pattern!

 

[Blocky10]

Yeah, GPS.


GPS and Black Magic!

That's what I was thinking. With as much grass as that, it would be a necessity for me. I couldn't waste daylight hours cutting grass :lol

 

[emjaybee]

Yeah, GPS.


GPS and Black Magic!

Is the Black Magic a backup system? In the event it can't locate a satellite does it then leave a series of chocolates to mark it's progress?

[Blocky10]

:lol:lol I'd end up getting run over by it, eating the chocolates
