This evening my 5 year old went all thoughtful then
pronounced..."Daddy...when it snows you can use the lawnmower to suck it
up"

After laughing for a moment I resolved to enquire here if anyone has tried
using a ride on mower for snow clearing? I suspect it would jam up quickly
but you never know.


I think that even with very dry snow a ride on would struggle, I have
however seen snow plough attachments to go on the front of bigger ride on
mowers and contemplated fabricating one for mine before I bought this

Fantastic photos, Mike - the 'cataloguing' of your garden is really good,
though I do have a mental note not to go anywhere near you and a Land Rover!
