Off Topic And Now for Something Completely Different

Me. The missus does our lawns !

 

I walk in perfectly straight lines when I’m doing mine, but not sure I’d be classed as ‘robotic’
Next door neighbour had one though and it seemed pretty good from what I saw.
Ideally don’t get one if you have dog **** on your lawn though!!!
I think you need to be able to set it to an external boundary, and make sure it can get through any gaps.
Theory presumably being that it will cut the grass so regularly that you don’t need to collect it, which is what I do with a mulching lawnmower anyway.
Probably need a back up in case it gets too long?
Other than that it must be just like a robot hoover and they’re brilliant

 

After licking her hand he realised he fancied an Indian !!!

 

Got a lawn master vbrm 16. Does front and back lawn on a battery. Still needs mowing around perimeter every couple of weeks. Doesn’t need a cable round the lawn which is how I can use it both front and back. You need to charge the battery as it doesn’t live outside with a dock.

 

How does it know where to mow upto with no perimeter cable? How big are your lawns? Don't answer if you'd rather not

 

A young, fit looking Woman, is walking past a Pet Shop where she notices a Sign in the window :-
"Good home needed for Clitoris-Licking Frog."
The woman goes inside and says to the Shopkeeper,
"I noticed you have a Clitoris-Licking Frog? I'll take one."
He packages up a Frog.
The woman sneaks out the door and rushes home. She gets home... takes out the instructions and reads them carefully doing exactly what it says to do....
Take a shower. Put on some nice smelling perfume.
Put on a very sexy Nightie.
Get into Bed, spread your Legs and put the Frog. Down "THERE"
To her surprise, Nothing Happens.
So, she thought, perhaps the Scent she chose is not appealing to the Frog... So, she showers again... and tries another Perfume.
She gets back into Bed, puts the Frog between her Legs and again,
NOTHING.
She's totally frustrated and pissed off at this point. She reads the instructions again thinking that there might be something she overlooked.
At the bottom of the paper it says... If you have any problems or questions, please call the Pet Store.
So, she does.
The man behind the counter says, "I've had a few complaints earlier today, I'll be right over to check out the problem"…???
A few minutes later he knocks on the door. He enters and says, "You'll have to show me exactly what you did"..??
She does.
She showers, puts on the Perfume and the Nightie, gets into Bed... and puts the Frog between her Legs.
NOTHING HAPPENS.
She says, "see, I've done everything according to the instructions and the damn thing just sits there."
The man looking very concerned, picks up the Frog, looks directly into its Eyes and says,
"RIGHT.. I'M ONLY GOING TO SHOW YOU HOW TO DO THIS. ONE MORE TIME"..

 

. No problem.
It has a camera, so only mows in daylight. It can see the borders, gravel, hedges, plants, bricks, patio etc and turns when near. I think my front lawn is about 10 yards by 5 and back one is about 10x10. So 150 sq yards roughly.
It follows a random pattern so might miss a bit. You can start it on random or by following a spiral before it breaks out and follows a random path again.

I bought mine last year with a strimmer and two batteries. Think the lot was about £375 (found a £50 voucher online) so not cheap, but not ridiculous. Used it last just a week or so ago. The grass stays on the lawn and seems to rot down nicely rather than build up thatch. I am happy with it. A mate has a much more expensive one with its little docking station and perimeter cable. He only has a back lawn (overlooking Mont Blanc so epic views). My budget isn’t quite what his was.

 

Something for Mother's Day?

Some nostalgia for ya.

 

Me Dad was well into it, he'd be sat as if he'd had an electric shock, arms and legs all over the place.
Where on Greatfield? We lived on Dartford Walk for a few years, behind Goat and Compass.

 

Ah Greatfield what a place to change your tappetts on your Vauxhall Viva on Stonebridge Ave after playing a match , Under the bonnet in your sheepskin coat and your footie strip covered in mud - in January , then driving home ! Vivas were s***

 

One of me Sisters live at no2 Lingdale now.

 

Not surprised. Not only do people love their rugby but also wrestling and darts. (Geraghty when extolling Hull’s virtues after the City OF Culture award.)
