    Bloody Good Lawnmowers, My father bought one in 1965 with a Briggs and Stratton 4 stroke engine on, he diedin 1992, but i was still using it in 2018. Ansolutly lethal, had no problem chopping a brick in half. Only ever needed servicibg three times, and always started on 2nd pull even after a winter languishing i nthe Shed.

    Well.I think that young Neo chap should be ashamed of destroying the planet with that huge climate polluting monster when he could have used an eco friendly push-pull machine which leaves lovely stripes in the grass!

    We used to catch poisonous snakes, take 'em to a lab, where they made anti venom. We got paid by the snake.

    Never got bit. We took all the proper precautions. Chaps, Snake Claw Tools, Leather boots, welding gloves. Mostly caught Western Diamondbacks and Western Rattlers, but also caught a few Sidewinders, and an occasional Mojave Rattler. After milking, we were required to take them back where we caught 'em and let 'em go.
