Now I know why the previous owners didn't bother to take their lawnmower with them.
I took it out of the shed and the handle dropped off. I secured the handle and plugged it in and it went zzzzZZZZZzzzz but nothing moved so I unplugged it and looked at the underneath and realised that it was pretty well rusted into place.
I managed to move the blades a bit, trapping my thumb in the process, but also in the process realised they are about as sharp as a plank of wood. So I think I need a new lawnmower.
If only I'd realised this sooner. We could have raced it last week!

Brown Hair
May. 12th, 2002 07:48 pmThe hair dye was successful. At least, for some values of successful. My hair is now approximately its natural colour and thus requires no more effort on the colouring front.
But it's brown and it's boring. I think I preferred the red. In fact, I know I did. Even if it did make everyone do a double take at first, and even if I did get comments like "Nice hair, which corpse did it come off?" (Ian Sorenson, what do you expect...?). Damn.
