Rough cut mower recommendations
Hi allI keep getting asked to mow rough areas, I've been hiring a walk behind flail mower, but I'm thinking of buying something ( I'll probably never get asked again if I do get something!) to use. It will need to be able to cut through tall weeds, brambles etc. it will need to be no more than 42 inch and be able to go in my van. Will have to be a second hand purchaseThanks in advance

Fence post auger
One of my clients has asked me to buy around 2500 daffodil bulbs to plant in one of their wildflower areas!! My back went into spasm as she told me.Thinking laterally...have any of you used a powered auger to drill the holes....I know the ground is going to be a stony nightmare to dig by hand...and at say 6 bulbs per hole I will need to dig over 400 holes 😟😟. So looking for ways of making the process easier and quicker.Thanks.
