Hi Steve,
It was Pete & me using Ron's machine.
I got an early start on Saturday morning cleaning up the southern side of the strip and when things were quiet through the morning (flying wise) Peter & I had a go at the cross strip plus a path into the reeds at western end.
I was intending on joining you with the new m/c when you mow next.
You'll be impressed, it does a nice cut and at twice the width you get thru it quite quickly, plus it shoots the clippings out the side so there no need to stop to empty a catcher.
See you Friday?
Cheers
Chris M
PS.
Went down to the field this arvo. Thanks Pete, I see that some more of the reeds have been cut down to size ready for a final hair cut.
