Tomorrow looks much sunnier than the cloud fest I had today.  Much, much sunnier hopefully.  Albeit, temperatures maybe down a degree or two compared to today.

On another note, avoid Radstock for a while unless you like lengthy traffic jams!

Ah, you'll be a learned person then, able to command top salaries wherever you go, but most importantly you can cut grass.🙊

Talking of which, if you are called upon to the Winchester Palace of delights @*Stormforce~beka* place, then you can now command a cuppa once the lawn is complete.

Morning All, what a cracker, shorts and 'T' (but then again winter is always shorts & T) to really appreciate the warmth this morning, after an overnight low of 6.0°C at: 08:19, currently 9.9°C, RH74% with light air movement from the NW.

From Above, looking good

  @jtay Awww So sad! Gonna  go on another course?! What can you now do you couldn't before?

  @Alderc 2.0 What you gonna do sweet?

  @Dorsetbred Hahahaha! I would feel awful calling him all that way just to cut the miniscule lawn! I should get one of those push along things and do it myself. I am scared of the electric one. Would probably cut my toes off or something!!

  @jy Glad everyone was ok. It’s good to have blue skies and sunshine again but it does make it more risky for driving when the sun is low in the sky.

Wonder how good they are. And whether it would be too heavy

Its not that they are heavy, they are fairly light, the challenge comes that you have to remember all the force to make the blades cut the grass is provided by you, so for long grass you could be forward and backwards a few times to get the blades to cut through the grass.
