Done with a Westwood ride on mower, Briggs and Stratton 12 hp V twin. God I loved that machine.

What's dry staine dyking

Dry stone walling. As I am in Scotland I went with the vernacular that I am familiar with. Sorry for any confusion.

I used to do it for a few years. Possibly the worst paid job I ever had but I was working with mates and have never enjoyed a job as much.

Cant beat a good dry stone wall...the repairs on those walls were carried out by free German labour. An ex Mercedes technician, a not very good striker from Werder Bremen and a bloke who owned a bearing factory in Bavaria.....

All sorted now, thanks guys for your recommendations. Went for this one in the end.

There’s a couple of Portuguese models on the market that are really good at chewing grass. The ‘Fernandes’ and the ‘Ronaldo‘ but they are very expensive to maintain.

Self propelled Honda 21"

Had it for over 20 years and its been serviced once and it`s still working. Honda`s are brilliant.

Can't beat Hondas.
Most pro grasscutters here have them.
Best motorbikes as well.

Honda road bikes are not as good as Kawasaki.

If you are in need of a spare engine I have a few off them knocking about having just won an auction. :)
