This will really make your morning

You really do get them out there, Neighbour John known for twenty plus years decided to by another house and move away, he teases me the fact it is in the flight path and only a just over kilometer away from the Rwy-29 threshold .. the bugger !

Anyway he kept the house and rents it out, getting to be a real property tycoon ole John is, but away from that, the house is now rented to one who really is not to bright, REALLY ! , must be in touching thirty years old and noticed me, here I am yesterday out with Marty's Marvelous Lawn mowing , obviously this twit told the lawn mower man 'Jim' his services are not required anymore, this bloke got himself an old push mower following my example.

Jim , whizzed over this little piece of lawn my half is only 300mm wide by 1.5 meters, never worried about, then the larger bit is on the property that John owns ... The really not to Bright , heard him late yesterday afternoon mowing the lawn, thought good on him.

This is the amazing part I went out this morning and really made me head scratch ... and remember the little bit of grass only 300mm wide by 1.5 meters, left it uncut, I never had to worry about since Jim simply a quick 30 second swipe and its done ... this PLONKER , name is Clanton mow's everything but ! ........ that boy really dose not have anything upstairs , I seriously do wonder what it is thinking ... That really has amazed me , I'm going to watch this and see if any penny drops .

NOTHING LIKE GOOD OLE COMMUNITY SPIRIT WELL It gets worst, most unbelievable, .. I really am stumped! , working on a little outside project sorta to get FT more use to hanging out in the yard outside, .... the boy returned home .. next thing a motor mower starts up ? ... huuuaaaa ! .. there was the boy mowing the lawn again , push mower of yesterday was not good enough

You think that is funny, Jim a local here in the neighbourhood saw me outside ... I quickly got him to park in of all things the motor mower was still chugging away in the back yard, Jim ask me what he maybe doing, head scratched myself .. next thing the boy come into the front tiled courtyard were the weeds have been left to grow, never seen a smile or heard a laugh from ole Jim , he said "He's now mowing the concrete" next words were (Jim mid 80 easy) simply said "what a bloody no hope'r" said I don't think I have been so entertained all year

The picture just completes the story ..... that's odd, but funny : lol:

Maybe you should fence off that vast stretch of grass:rolleyes:

I said to Jim I'll really look after it and watch it grow just for fun, last week the plonker was knocking on my door borrowing tools to fix a car ... I won't go there with that story ... but one would think this little thing beats his community spirit , that little extra ..

ya have to love them ..........

Well , Had I thought about it , I simply would have moe'd it .. mo mo mo (to many Simpsons re-runs) .. , me I wander the entire No.17 block and spray weeds no prob .. simple meet the neighbour's but the .. "The really not to Bright !" is a must ! to nurcher this piece of lawn till I hear a Click

Haha, gotta love that community spirit all right. I used to have that problem with one neighbour, was a standing joke at our place, but after my accident this year he's started mowing our bit, musta felt sorry for me

I seriously could not believe the blokes thinking, only a couple weeks back was in and outta here borrowing tools almost every day ... so after all that, it was strange to even do this little thing with a hand mower ... then return a day later with a petrol motor and do the exactly the same thing

Don't ya just Luvvv the community luvvv ...

You want grass?.... ....!

I'll give you GRASS!..... ...!

My back garden, taken from my back bedroom window....

20th March 2017, Early Spring in the Northern Hemisphere!

....and the grass is growing like wildfire!

...and its soaking wet!

Spring flowers sprouting in the grass!




...and my next door neighbours back garden.....

She has already cut her grass!




..and that's not to mention all the grass in my front garden!

My Briggs and Stratton petrol mower is going to be very busy when the grass dries out!

Paul....Watching the grass grow...very quickly!.... ....!

Nothing like the good ole push mower, "Marty's Marvelous Lawn Mower" really kicked in some benefits .. was to be cut open but due to this antiquated piece of machinery, this is not going to happen, Phewy! I was not interested in having a flip top lid on the front of me ... funny since I have had the MMLM , other than the twit next door another now uses one ... its getting catchy .. no not for the grass, I will be interesting to see how far it go's with this little pizza box of grass.

I tried to take the photos with my Digital Pentax Camera, but they didn't come out very well...(restricted view)...

Then I tried my Motor Bike Video Camera with its 170 degree, wide-angle lens...>>>

Much better!

Excellent for video and still shots!

Imagine one of my Famous Dinners photo'd in 1080P HD, with a 170 degree-wide angle lens, in glorious technicolour, and Dolby Surround Sound!.... ....

Mouth watering!

Paul.... ...!

Funny thing is, I could have mowed this patch myself without any thought, just a 'wham Bam Thankyou Mam ' no effort at all, what I am pointing out here is simply how shallow in thought some people really are, I'm doing this as a study of human behaviour now .. I pointed it out to a back flatter .. told him not to mention anything ... my own personal experiment and to see how far it go's.

If you study the photo .. that is the driveway after he mowed the lawn ... WHOOPS! mowed the concrete, John had the both the front and back court yard done in cobble stones, old style so weeds are a regular feature ... You really have to laugh when you see a 30 year old mowing the concrete

"I'm doing this as a study of human behaviour now".....

Doomed to failure, Ian.... ...!

Far too unpredictable.....

Take our "Donald" as a prime example... ...!

Paul.... ... ....!

Nothing wrong with my mate Donald ... he simply would have had someone to mow the lawn.

...and replaced the dividing patch of grass.... with a wall!.... ...!

We Brits are good at building walls, fences, and bl**dy hedges!... ....!

(Take a look at my Back Garden!...My Neighbour's Fences!).

Paul.... ....!

What life is all about, looking at the thing that will really surprise ya and then have ya laughing for an entire week!

There we go, out with the lawn mower yesterday, I'll give it a another go tomorrow, it was very wet .. anyway, neighbour notice me bringing in my crop - he dose have a push mower but out he come out , went out, he borrowed a motor mower Neanderthal man strikes back , lined up his lawn mower and did cut , the lawn is now looking like a Mohawk and getting a hedge ... took the dufuss longer to line the motor mower up than it would have taken to cut it, he really has that Community Spirit

LOL am loving this developing saga, keep it coming. Can't wait for next weeks episode
