A plodding blog

Ah yes, more shots of long narrow green swards of grass. Welcome to the once a fortnight dull blog. Mowing.

I have it down to a fine art. Step one, plug in the mp3 player in my ear and hit play on Mark Kermode’s film review podcast.

That will give me just over two hours to do the orchard, the track, the duck pond area, the main lawn, and the grass area in front of the house.

In to refuel and check my fitbit (13000 steps in case you are wondering but I did go to town earlier to recycle, zip around the supermarket and go to the agricultural supply store) and have a cup of tea.

Back on with the kneeler pads, the gloves, the entertainment, the ear muffs, the petrol cannister and the big Ikea bags for the grass cuttings and off to the first terrace below the road I go.
