I have a small yard.
Half a pint to mow, half a pint to weed, 3 pints to sit back and admire.

Happy days.
To be honest, I wish I had more land.

Zero pints, too. We have only a couple of square metres of artificial turf. Just enough for the dog to do on what he needs to :?

1.5-2 hours to mow the lawn. Not sure how many pints that is but I'd had 4 with lunch before starting. Now supping my 5th surveying my work whilst the little one runs and rolls around telling me it's much nicer. Like when I shave off the facial fungus. :grin:

Great thread Pogierob.

Yeah about 1 longneck. Not sure what this weeding thing is that you mentioned, but if it's worth an extra largie then I might have to look into it. :mrgreen:

Back lawn only takes 10 minutes to whipper and mow. Not enough to earn extra pint points.

Front lawn takes about a ½ hour to whipper and mow, so that's worth an extra pint on top of my usual ration.

finally got around to mowing the front and back lawn which is just over an acre, the grass was a bout 2' high and home alone 5 pales were consumed before the big job, got the back lawn done after having to do 3 pass's then one more pale for sustenance then the front lawn got done. Got a fair bit done then the 'yard arm' call came around so that was it for the day. When I use my big weed trimmer with the blade on NO amber liquid as that baby is one serious bit of weed wacking and can only be done after rain to cut down on the fire risk.

I'm with barls on this one, a couple of bottles watching SWMBO mow. 8)
If I'm forced to mow, about 40mins with a half time "orange break" :wink:

Does it come with a cup holder?

You could use a hat with stubbies duct taped to each side and long hoses/straws......
