DH uses my late dad's petrol mower. My dad passed away in 1996 and I can remember him having the mower for many years before that. It's a bit like Trigger's broom I think
It can do stripes too, but only if DH walks in a straight line lol. 0 -

When we were kids we used to have to 'roller' the grass to get strips. We made sure that they were straight....

We were so happy when the handle fell off one day... but dad had it flipping mended!100 -

I put the turkey tin on a melamine tray to keep it more stable and stop it bending as they were being moved due to the weight of the spuds. I asked DH to put the spuds in the fridge in the garage. A few hours later I was tidying the kitchen and asked DH if he had seen my tray. Oh he said, I've put in the fridge with the spuds on :eek: what a donut!
Makes sense to me, then it saves remembering to take a tray back into the garage to being them back. An organised kitchen godess would have enough melamine trays to go round “Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?”
