Vruuuum vrum vrum vrum vrum... 💨
Can I tell you something..?
When we purchased our little 1927 built house here in Newcastle Australia 🇦🇺 the front yard was well, meh. I dug it all up and found so much in the underlying soil from candy wrappers to electronic wiring (not connected to anything), crusty condoms (yep), plastic bottles and more, and it’s such a small area too. I then paid someone to drop a trailer load of shit on the front foot path in front of the fence, yep, I actually paid someone to do that 🤔
From there, I literally shoveled shit from the path to the yard. I then rolled out my own Sir Walter Buffalow grass. I shoveled a little more shit and then watered it in every single day for the next two weeks.
I literally watched my grass grow. 🌱💚🌱
...nek minnit (4 years later), we pack our bags and moved to the USA 🇺🇸 , we get a tenant in our house and because he didn’t have access to a whipper snipper (a weed whacker 😂 one of my most favourite American words ever☝🏼😅) he poisoned the perimeter of the yard 😲🥴😭.
My older bro saw it one day as he worked close by, he sent me a photo (we were still living in the USA) and you know what I did, you want to know what I did..?
I dobbed on him, yes, I dobbed 😌. I called the real estate looking after our house on our behalf and I dobbed on him.
I figured after a week or so, that maybe it was coming from an emotional place (the dobbing), but dude, it’s #SirWalterBuffalo.
He was a pretty good tenant, I mean I’m pretty sure he was illegally sub-letting the place out but other than that and the whole grass thing the place stayed in good nik (good condition).
Back to this epic lawnmower though. I’d mow every day! Sweet find @theatomicbinge !
Behold the best lawn mower design ever.
