Hi everyone.

My name is Dave and my wife and I have recently moved to Australia from England and I hope you won't hold that against us! cool

We're living in a rented house in Berwick, VIC until we get our own house hopefully some time in 2010.

To try and keep the weed and grass covered garden in check I recently bought a very old Victa VC 160 mower which looks as if it comes from the 70's. It works and does the job and no doubt there are a few experts on the boards who can answer any questions I might have.

Merry Christmas to all.

Dave

I've noticed that Joe.

It seems very solidly built and it's running and idling as sweet as anything.
