What is it about men and ride on lawnmowers? my OH insists that when we move we WILL need a ride on . we will have a fairly big front lawn and a side lawn which will be planted with fruit trees. the seller is leaving his big petrol mower (included in the house price). the rest of the land (2.5 acres ) is rough grass - as in a field. my OH thinks that he is going to need to mow the whole field and thinks he can get a ride on mower to make it easier ...i would rather get some livestock personally or cut for hay as I think he would soon get fed up with spending 4 hours mowing....... any suggestions?
GET SOME SHEEP OR GOATS, MAYBE EVEN A WEE DEXTER COW - Don't even think aout mowing it !
I watched in amusement last weekend as our next door neighbour started to his field with a lawn mower (approx 2 acres) after mowing for an hour he'd not even covered a tenth of it. LOL!
I've never understood people who move to the country, buy a couple of acres and then don't put animals on it ! Why would you want to do all that mowing - even with a ride on ?
But men & gadgets - that's just they way they are ! You've got my sympathies
