Good afternoon from a very windy HB but at least it has stopped raining - the water in the creek has dropped significantly - ducks not so happy
This message board so often  prompts memories - maybe I must be getting old - I was probably 11 when my Dad got his first motor mower - maybe older - we were all out in the backyard watching him - I remember it was smoking and very noisy he was struggling and it very quickly became jammed - he put his hand under to unblock it - seems so stupid now thinking about it he owned a trucking company so knew about mechanical things - anyway it chopped two fingers off and I can still see his finger with his wedding ring on lying in the grass - I fainted but Dad used to always tell the story my brother and younger sister wanting to look for his pinkie finger - he went back to the push mower and it was many years later before he bought another motor mower and it was one of those roller type ones

I'm enjoying the memories Jan.    My Father in Law had part of one finger missing. Didnt catch it on anything tho.. Well under the tomohawk lol.. Of which he should not have been playing with lol
