No I don't have many friends at school who like vintage mowers like I do, one thinks there an OK project and one helps me out on my Facebook page. I still think its a better hobby then call of duty.


Thanks for reading!

Freebird, very hard to know what the world will be like in 20/30 years time, either half the world will be unemployed so unable to buy anything or get it repaired, or by then everything will have become so disposable that nothing would be worth trying to repair. Poor Kye is in for a rough lifetime, sorry Kye for the world we have left for you

Hi Freebird, I had a bit of a look for Reid Machinery today but I couldn't find them, are they in that big scrap yard just before the creek?
