Gonna get my mower out and give the lawn its first trim of the year. Might get one more season out of my Mountfield rotary and then I'm looking at investing in a Hayter with a roller.Currently it's a 2 stage operation - first a buzz over with the Mountfield then I apply stripes with my Ransomes cylinder.

I've got a Hayter Roller Rotary and it's quite good and covers a lot of ground (I've got Harrier '56). However the problem is that because it's a rotary you have to wait until the grass is reasonably dry before you can cut it. With hindsight, for the best lawn stripes you can't beat a forward cylinder blade cut followed with a roller - you can also cut your lawn when slightly wet without ripping the grass out.

The only chore I really enjoy doing!
I was all ready for getting the mower out last weekend but the weather turned and I couldn't. I used to own a Webb self prop cylinder mower and it was the mutts nuts.
However I had to let it go and I will be looking at getting a new mower this cutting season.

In general, start from what you know is good, then choose your menu from that; rather than starting from what you would like, then hoping that you can find it.
Applies especially to eating seafood, but probably also to life in general.

My local stockist doesn't have them and I certainly wouldn't buy from a supermarket. I saw that C4 Documentary that discovered that the so called fresh stuff you see on the counter has sometimes been frozen in blocks of ice for months on end.
