The Grass is not always GREENER!!!!

Lucy - Who is that stupid Bitch mowing a wet lawn? Yes Campers that stupid Bitch would be this stupid Bitch!!!!
Apparently it is not a good idea to mow the lawn when it is wet!!!  Who knew?
This silly Bitch should have known. The last time I was in the yard mowing the same thing happened. The catcher got clogged & the mower kept stopping!
Normally I find mowing the lawn quite therapeutic but not today, I went from calm to crazy in a matter of seconds.
Today Time was running out, Sawusband was on the flight home & I had not mowed yesterday because it was raining & in my desperate attempt to have the house look seamlessly in order (like the fairies have done everything) I was running around like a Blue Arsed Fly.  
First job the lawn.
It was looking a little long because the weather has not been the best. There’s nothing like leaving everything to the last minute….
I was definitely a stereotypical woman mowing the lawn. I was running around scooping up all the clippings that had landed on the grass because they were spewing out the catcher that was clogged! & Why was this happening? do I hear you ask…. because the grass was wet.
God I hope all the neighbours were too busy to see me over the fence!

So now I have green fingers (definitely not a green thumb!)
Very attractive

You can't quite see the mess from up here!


So I have butchered the back yard, time to tackle the front!
I think the pictures will speak for themselves!!!
there appears to be more grass on the ramp than in the catcher
I hope we get a big breeze!

I am sure you are all thinking this looks a little like a Crew Cut.. Yes some long/some short! Some would say perhaps you could have changed the setting on the mower! That's a great idea, but I don't know how to do that....

Some short, some long. Lucky I don't cut hair!

This was the first mow since the “Pram Ramp To Nowhere” was installed….
Looks Amazing Doesn't it!!!


I would ask Andrew to help but he & Gusband hardly ever have to mow their lawn, they have Papa T to do it for them.

Happy lawn mowing Campers.

Andrew - Now, now, don't be so hard on yourself. Lawn mowing is a really complex task. Not that I'd know - like you said.

You really need to get yourself a "Poppy T". He comes around once once a week and mows it for us, M.I.L even comes and tidies our hedge. We haven't had to do much yard maintenance in years. Lazy? NO! Spoilt? Maybe a little

I love the green fingers in the first photo! Too funny. Why the hell weren't you using a rake? That's why these things were invented! I bet you are still rubbing sticks together to make fire. The girl with the fancy pizza oven doesn't own a rake???? Hopefully Sawsuband will take you for a quick run to Bunnings to rectify this debacle. Chances are he wouldn't have been mowing the lawn while it was wet though. If you had only phoned me I could have talked you through raising the blades on the mower. Although why a gay man who doesn't even mow his own lawn needs to know such things is beyond me.

I'm thinking that you really need to play the "girl" card more often. There are some things you and I shouldn't have to do. Mowing lawns is one of them, digging holes is another. These are jobs for husbands and straight boys.  As they say - there's no point having a dog and barking yourself! Do you bite yourself when Henry isn't?

Many a time in the past we have called on Sawsbund's "straightness" to do something butch - like moving something heavy. These days things don't get done as quickly at our place this is because you selfishly moved away (and most of our other straight friends slefishly have children to look after.)

Come to think of it, Gusband is often playing the "I don't do cleaning" card........ It's a wonder anything happens at Castello Edwardo really.

Play your cards right campers. xxx
