    Hi all ,
    
    	I would like to ask a big favour , if possible . Please ,Does anyone
    have A strimmer I could borrow as my Pittifull little lawnmower gave
    up the ghost and the recent spell of good whether and rain has made
    my garden a Meadow and my Landlord is not a happy chappy . The next
    door nieghbours keep losing their children in our front garden .
    I'll need a strimmer to take off the top layer of grass sos my little
    lawnmower can hack round the garden again .
    
    Failing that , could anyone recommend a shop I could rent/hire garden 
    equipment .

    Thanx all ...

    No strimmer I'm afraid, but Homebase, Winchester Road, have a hire	
    department for tools and garden machines, can't be sure they hire	
    strimmers but may be worth asking. If that fails I have a scythe
    you can borrow.

|     I do have a strimmer - but am over in Reading.  I will be at the
    Crescent on Monday, 12th June - and you'd have to return it to me
    ...  Give me a ring on 7-830-6292 if you are interested.

|     Re.-1 .Tony, My nieghbours winge at me when hitting my practice pads
    in the house . If I go out in the garden they'd set their Jack russel 
    on me . Cute idear tho .

    Mega Doom Rock drum set , in the lounge )
