Not only did he give us a generous donation, which as we said yesterday has paid for the battery strimmer we needed to maintain the bit of verge near Fairy Cross where we discovered a colony of early purple orchids, but after reading yesterday's blog thanking him, he wrote: 'my late mother was a member of the Royal Botanical Society, where she exhibited her watercolour paintings, and so it is a fitting cause!'
What a nice guy!
Yes; thanks, Paul!
ReplyDeleteIt's actually a two-stroke petrol-driven one, and I've just been testing it on some dandelions.
The battery ones we looked at typically give around 30 minutes of run-time before requiring a 15-hour recharge. Petrol ones have a lot more power, and can run for hours (if needs be).
