Gardening Tip

If you have a lawn, start mowing it sometime before the middle of June when the grass is higher than your waist, as it will clog up the lawnmower.

Good tip, however should this be the case, get it with a strimmer first ;-)

Or get yourself some sheep.

In some parts of London, machetes can be put to their original use. Which makes a nice change...

And slice off your fingers when you try to unclog it.

"... as it will clog up the lawnmower."

Shouldn't that read: "... or else it will clog up the lawnmower."?

But I don't claim to know much about gardening.

No, the real problem is you forget the things that lurk in the grass. The animate are gruesome and the inanimate bugger up the blades.

QM- I've thought of that but I don't have one, I do have a hedge trimmer though which might work.

Macheath- There's already rabbits in the garden and they don't do much.

Julia- I'm sceptical whether that would work, but I do want one anyway.

James- Yeah I do stop the mower before trying to unblock it.

TDK- I'm quite paranoid about seeing a splatter of blood and feathers coming through the back of the machine.
