I'm new to gardening, and I was a bit shocked to find that it
requires physical
effort. Quite a lot of physical effort, in fact, and I find it
rather
unpleasant. I got quite breathless at one point yesterday.
Furthermore I got
quite dirty, despite doing my best to minimise contact with the
garden
environment. Does anyone know if there is a machine or anything that
will
basically do everything, so I can just take photographs of the
flowers, etc,
and email them to my friends? That's what gardening is all about
really, isn't
it? Not all this sweating. I would envisage a device that can be
directed from
the living room settee by remote control.

See if your wife will be the required mechanism. Mine won't do more
than her fair share.
