Today I acquired...........

[KemppiFrog]

My neighbour just came over and offered his mower for free. Not a push jobby, but a serious Husquvana thing with the deck out front and a 15hp Kohler donk. Farts and bangs,then dies, when you try to get going and he thinks big probs, so has ordered a new one.
Personally, I reckon the carb is gummed up and told him so, but NO, he fancies a new one, so what am I to do? Collection is growing..I expect Mick Annick to be beating my door down But what does he know..?

I have one of those and the choke sticks, which means it farts and bangs and dies, if you dont jiggle it. But that has a briggs engine

Don't know the model? But it has hydrostatic drive and steers by hinging in the middle. Meter wide deck and very well put together.

Yes, every schoolboy's dream.

Almost but I'm afraid that B.B. and S. L. were my dreams. If you have to ask then you weren't there.

Mines a C12 or 13 (can never remember) Rider. very good thing, turns on a sixpence. Gets through belts though and Husqvarna belts are dear, and cheapo ones never seem to quite fit.. The deck swings forward and up to clean it, and thats very handy.

You’re clearly that bit older than me.

 

[sardine]

What is in it.

I know B&Q that dumps bad mixed paint.
Have you open it yet?

Don't doubt the force.

A new keyless for the Wandess,lets see if it matches the grip on my very old Albrecht!

Have you seen a photo of B. B. As s got older though, makes the picture of Felicity K look like a top model. She hasn’t aged well.

Who are BB & SL?

 

[My Old Landy]

Who are BB & SL?

Bridget Bardot and Sophia Lauren I think.

 

[MattF]

She was never in spank bank territory, (or at least not mine. I'm not speaking for you lot. ) but with regards to a woman who seems to have aged exceptionally well, Floella Benjamin is an amazing example.

Toya Wilcox in the white top on an exercise bike, not bad for 62.

I ran into Sophia Loren at a party once. The thing about these celebrity "lookers" is that in order to look good on camera, they really have to be spectacular in real life.

She was spectacularly beautiful. I was so shocked I accidentally bumped into Sylvester Stallone, one of the few celebs even I can literally look down on...

I have had one of those Metabo keyless chucks on my Meddings for over 25yrs and highly recommend them.

 

[KemppiFrog]

On BB and SL, have to say, dark hair and complexions tend to age better than blonds.

Over on another forum, one blokes claim to fame was T boning BB in San Trop. IN A CAR, no euphemism there.

All the plastic and botox are not 62 though.

Regarding Floella Benjamin the saying goes that black don't crack
My mate's in his mid 50's and looks younger than me!
He is black I is white
