Reminds me the other day I watched a council worker edging lawns with a
petrol strimmer the same as mine, using it "upside down", he was
proceeding at a slow walking pace and making a great job.

Got home, tried that, not as easy as it looked, made a right hash, more
practice needed. Anyone got a lawn I could practice on, I don't want to
mess mine up!
