Cro's New Toy.



With considerably more grass to mow this year than last, I thought it was time we kept up with the Jones's, and bought ourselves a ride-on mower.

I know two small boys who will like it..... but it's MINE...... MINE...... MINE!!!

Morning Cro - what a beauty, you lucky boy.

Vroooom...

Wish someone would invent a ride-on vacuum cleaner. You boys have all the fun! (Your mower has even got a whisky glass holder.)

Cro Magnon said...

The salesman was very happy to point that out!

Kath said...

I have this vision of you hugging your arms around your mower, with a defiant expression on your face, calling over your shoulder, "You're not allowed a go!"

Cro Magnon said...

That's it; that's me all over!

Now it's your turn to annoy the neighbors with a quad bike...

Lady M suggested I take the silencer off!

A man toy. My husband loves his also and my grandson is eyeing his dad's. Have fun!

We call them "rider" mowers here in the US or if you are really well off and buy one that turns very tight circles (for about $10,000) it is called a "zero-turn" All the same, that's a might fine roadster you got there Cro.

Oooh...it's purty. That should cut back on the mowing time.

Cro Magnon said...

And just look at those fat rear tyres!

Kat said...

Congratulations! I know just how you feel. It is a "must" toy here, with acres to mow. We replaced one last year and I love it! Cutting grass is my time to just think, or sing, or cry!

Kat said...

P.S., wish we had blue ones!

Amy Saia said...

Boys and their toys . . . Actually, it looks like a lot of fun!

Cro Magnon said...

It's actually Charcoal Grey.

Camille said...

Sweet! And just look at those brand new, unworn tires. You've turned a page Cro...the lawn will never look the same again. Enjoy!

Hilarious Cro...we saw someone mowing their lawn with one of these while out walking this morning...I could see the envy in Rudy's eyes! LOL!

Molly said...

That's neat. Love the video of Monty too.

But all men are little boys at heart, that's what I love about them.
Just hope for dry weather or you'll be champing at the bit to get out there. lol

We have one at Willow Manor...but it's not nearly as pretty as your blue one!

Very nice ride-on mower, Cro!

I've always called them 'ride-on mowers' and someone at my last location told me they're really called 'lawn tractors'. Yeah, whatever, you say say tomayto, i say tomahto....

Cro Magnon said...

or even just 'tractors'. No, you're right, they're mowers that you ride on; i.e. ride-on mowers.

Don't forget Sir that in France, gardeners drive on the "wrong" side of the lawn ...

Splendid beast and a wonderful man-toy!
