Do you think the main strip needs mowing.
Keeping in mind, thick not necessarily long grass plays havoc with small undercarriages.
If it does I will be there at 7 with the beast.

Gazz, let's do the mowing in the morning. It won't take long. Only the main strip "needs" a cut and only at the ends (refer field conditions thread for pictures). The pit area can do with a 3 minute trim and 5 min trim for the heli pad. We'd be finished in 30-45 minutes and all would appreciate the bowling greens to fly off / land on.
[We all need to thank whoever did the cross strip and some of the main runway. I don't think the council did this as it is too precise for the tractor and on the main strip, the wheel span suggests a Victa or similar].
I'll join you at 7.00am.

Edit: Seems the mystery mower was ChrisM - but from last weekend. The grass grew so little you'd swear it was done mid week. Good news then... today's mowing effort from the Parra Precision Mowing Team (abbreviate to P.M.T.) means we won't need to do a precision mowing display for quite a few weeks I'd guess.
