  1. Lol Groceries are fine but if you want petrol... that is another story entirely!
  2. No it mulches as it goes so finely that you do not see or smell it... my Husband is severely allergic to grass and it does not affect him at all. It is truly amazing! We did try a cheaper no name version but put it back in the box as soon as we took it out. Bought the house for it but sent it back as it was not very good so will just simply store it in the shed in the winter months. It can go over paving and even do 2 different areas. We got the 500 model on offer at Amazon but are yet to work out what the actual difference is as the contents of the box are the same... we are figuring it may be the battery life but are not quite sure lol
  3. It was not my pivot... just replying to a comment lol
  4. For many years I have lived in the UK thinking Australia was miles ahead... now I am glad I am living in the UK and my husband's family here have all been fully vaccinated. This is no longer a political debate... this is about saving lives. Strangely enough in my workplace the only people that have refused the vaccination are from the EU. No one has been fooled... everyone has the choice to vote and the choice to be vaccinated. You can walk into a vaccination centre or testing centre the same day in the UK and order testing kits online for next day delivery for free. I also voted Green for the election just because I believe the bigger picture matters but I am not unhappy now with the way the UK has dealt with Covid with multiple very complex matters.
  5. We got a Flymo EasylifeGo robotic lawnmower... would never look back... it (we have called it Nemo lol) is amazing and you never have to pick up grass as it cuts so fine it mulches as it goes. The only thing you do need to do is trim the edges or just plant borders.
  6. Prices are rising for various reasons but essentials including fruit and veg are staying low or discounted due to price matching with Aldi at the moment and also the supermarkets selling their own branded produce much like Coles and Woolies do and to be fair the quality of fresh produce is getting better in the pre-packed packaging recently and I have never quite got used to not being able to pick my own produce. Petrol/Diesel prices are rising rapidly and plaster and wood are on limited sale at the builders merchants (if even available). Fortunately Amazon tends to be able to source a lot of stuff on bulk purchase and we managed to buy a 6x6 shed today at a really good price when everyone else is out of stock. When I first came here 8 years ago Salmon was my saving grace... the price of that has gone waaay up in recent years but you can always get bargains if you go to the discounted sections, even in Waitrose
  7. Everything here in the UK is getting more expensive by the day including outdoor stuff due to Covid, Brexit and the cost of materials. If you love it... bring it home! Being yelled at to watch the penalties now lol
