Would you not buy a couple of goats
I’m not spending €6000 on two robots thats what I was roughly quoted. I said I’d probably do it if I can get away with one robot for half the price. Keep up. And in the meantime keep enjoying that concrete jungle all around you and fantasize about having a lawn like mine.

Another townie. Weren’t you the fella who was on here before looking for advice about spending a hundred euro on an electric mower?
A lot of jealous people here.

Would a robot lawnmower not get lost amongst the rushes up in Tournafulla?

They have enough big white power sources up there to run robots to strip away the rushes …
You’re very defensive, we’re you expecting a pat on the head from everybody.
The thoughts of rural living is hell to me, but you must love it, good luck to you. I have a small front and reasonable large back garden, acres of green fields across the road. That’s the facts,
You must be a very busy man if you can’t cut the grass 7 or 8 times a year. Do any young fellas lug around a lawn mower and offer to do it for a small fee?
It goes through rushes, weeds, different topography. Fellas can’t get their heads around robots improving our lives.

Seven or eight times a year on a 3/4 acre site in the golden vale? 
Come back to me when you know what you’re talking about, good man

You’d want to cut the grass a lot more than 7 or 8 times a year 
Twice a week to keep the grass under control.
My lawn has such a cover on it at the minute I’ll need to call in a chap with a bigger mower to get the first cut done ( there’s probably a round bale on it ).
Fucking growth never halted at all really

I wouldn’t comment on a middle aged man spending good money on trainers more suitable for teenagers, for example

You’d want to have fierce bad land to be cutting in any less than once a week. Fierce bad altogether. Horrendous.

Incredible growth, I’m looking at mine and contemplating will I or won’t I….
You’ll get a dart of frost yet so I’m letting it run till early march.

That’s my thinking too tbh.
I’ll get a fella in to mow it in tight & collect the clippings, I’ll be able to mulch away then until parking it all up again in October.
I should also get my man in to aerate it and try and get my moss under control.
Heaping clippings is a bollocks but mulching encourages the bastard moss
I’ve been called many things in my lifetime but never a townie you fucking eejit.
My parents have a similar sized area to cut. My father is 77. All his life used a petrol power. Said he’d be embarrassed to be seen on a ride-on as that’s only for lazy cunts. He had to stop doing it last summer because he got a pacemaker and the mother wouldn’t let him at it. His brother did it for him (I did it the times I was down). When his brother (only in late 60s) called round with a ride-on, the father said he must be gone fair fucking soft.
I’ve an aunt 76 who is mowing much more than you have there. She uses a mixture of a ride-on and a petrol power for those hard to get to pieces. If you’re so worried about your time, step away from the keyboard for a while

I had to give it the first cut a week and a half ago. I’ve never seen a winter like it for growth. Only stopped cutting it in mid November. I’d have lost Bobby in it if I hadn’t cut it when I did.
