Default large garden maintenance

The message
from "K" contains these words:


My DH cuts the grass and trims the escalonia for me - doesn't like
gardening. He bought himself a hedgecutter in the summer and has used it
once. Managed to cut through the lead TWICE!!


Hm, K, I'm not sure you've quite picked up the spousal message. It
appears he wishes to offload an unwelcome task, bought *you* a
hedgetrimmer, and cunningly made double sure you'd never let him operate
it. A variant on the famous Dishwasher Doublecross.
