And then yesterday I had a couple of Sudanese want a mower "because we are mowing lawns" I sold them a Rover with a Quantam motor on it and they brought it back later saying it kept stopping. I just gave them the money back, it is not worth trying to explain to them if you just keep pushing a mower into long grass it will keep stalling. The problem is all these people jumping into mowing at the moment are picking up all the jobs Jims Mowing blokes don't want to do, long grass in backyards that haven't been cut for 6/12 months or vacant blocks or general rubbish jobs. This sort of work requires tough equipment and domestic mowers just aren't designed for it. When I say to them get a Honda GXV160 they freak out at the prices, even second hand ones. The other problem then with the Hondas is they bodies are too heavy to push around in long grass. There is no single mower on the market that will cover all these types of jobs
