Last Monday was about 38C too...Not a drop of rain for many weeks .

Ah well , grizzling when I am cutting , grizzling when I'm not ..

New addition isn't a mower but it's something I've wanted for ages . I bought a Makita hammer drill and impact driver combo from Home Hardware $369 ..
Brushless motor version .

Came with the fast charge unit as well and two 3 mAh LXT batteries of course .. Very happy indeed . Used it today for the first time . About time I owned a decent drill etc other than the cheap stuff I kept buying way too often ,

You can never have too many toys Roddy!

I'm a Makita man too, I'm sure those newies will serve you well.
