Similar, but smaller, came with a variety of attachments, I have two, one with a cutter bar and one with a rotavator

They’re monro tillers, handy tools but heavy!!

Out shooting years ago, I shot a large dog turd at 5 yards with my air rifle, blew it to pieces. A while later i could still smell it. Only then did i realise a lump of it was stuck on my moustache under my right nostril. My mate nearly died laughing.

Nearly broke my leg with this one last year, mower slid on a banking, dragged me after it, hit the bottom and reared up, I slid under it and it slammed back down on my shin

I have a memory of when I was small, 10 or something, of being dragged along on my front hanging on to the handles which were touching the ground while the teeth were pointing at the sky.

My father was shouting at me to let go!

Never used one since.
