Forget McCulloch, if your work requirment is intermittent go for a Victus (with 50CC engine), or if yu can afford a bit moe an Oleo Mac - even better!
Hi Philip
Just been looking at some of your photos.
Oradur sur Glane, I think every 16 year old would benefit from a visit there, the reality of how an ordinary village with 'every day sort of people' get caught up in war - the actual reality.

Hi
I posted a discussion a few months ago concerning the re-positioning accross the lawn of our weeping cherry tree, and a number of your good selves kindly posted advice etc. I am happy to inform you that mother and baby are doing well - she is cur…
i nearly didnt realise - i was getting excited about the 'usually best/which mower question again going on for weeks with 35+ replies LOL. :-)

ALPINA PRO-53 LVHK 4-SPEED PETROL SELF-PROPELLED ROTARY LAWNMOWER
R.R.P. £449 MowDIRECT PRICE ONLY

Alloy & Poly Carb deck, mines been fine, gets a lot of regular use.

Purely on parts availability One of the professional spec Honda made mowers, they arent the best in terms of wet pick up and weight but spares will be no problem and the machine should be fairly reliable.
Otherwise my choice would be Etesia, either…
I would like to purchase a rotary mower, preferably self propelled that can make a reasonable job of at best a very average lawn and some rougher grass in and around an orchard. I would prefer to use a grass collection box on the lawn, but not in th…

- Hi Antony
Welcome to LJN. It sounds like you have an interesting time ahead with a move to France. Have you looked at the garden business that is for sale near Castillonnes?
I hope you enjoy the site.
Kind regards
Phil
