I was passing Blowin's place the other day, it is looking fantastic with hours of very hard work put in, to bring it to where it is now.

But I have noticed that Blowin is suffering from a serious medical complaint....... Does anyone know a good surgeon who could perform a strimmerectomy.
Blowin can be seen wandering aimlessly with a strimmer attached, it must make life very difficult for him. Imagine trying to shower, drive the jeep, have meals or even hug your pigs with this terrible affliction.
I think we on this forum should try to help by sending donations to STRIMMERAID. With this money we can get the best medical help for Blowin so that one day he will be able to go out into the world again, head held high and free at last from this appendage.

Please make your cheques out to cash and send them to me at ............

alas, it's not as rare as you might at first think - my other half has been suffering this one for the past 6 years now, ever since he bought the honda 4 stroke. Sometimes he can go for days without strimming something and I begin to relax again, able to walk up close to him without being pinged by bits of grass and dock stubble... but then I hear the engine roaring again...

I fully support STRIMMERAID, and would implore others to do so too.*






*and so does the poor hebe out front, it never has time to recover before the next strim!

Haha , thankyou for those few kind words .
Tea helps . Remove strimmer from hand and immediately replace with a mug of hot tea while the victim is still wondering whether you are real or just another one of those apparitions which keep flitting across the peripheral vision Shocked Wink.
Bring biscuits , too .
And a strimmer .

Now that is a serious matter which warrants its own section . Particularly since mine died last night , too .
I'll put it as a subsection under "Making and fixing things " Wink .
