Not that much!!

I average around 7 - 10 Wool bales (about 4 or 5 72L catchers per bale). Thats usually from 7 - 9 hours work.

Hi all, I am very lucky coz all my customers have green waste bins, I take 2-3 chaff bags with me every day and if i have to take some away it can always be put in the next lawns bin. I mulch what can be mulched but there ain't much of that happening lately.

Lifstyle how could you do so much work in a day cause your always on the forum having a dribble .become a member and then we may not take the -iss out of you so much but then again you are from down south as far as you can get .That Says it all ha ha.
Back to the grass i usslley mulch but its getting to thick to mulch as its growinng like crazy at the moment.

Pretty simple really...

I can't start work until i get the kids to school. Because Beth is disabled it takes 2 to get her to school (One driving one in the back seat so she doesn't pull the car apart).

Then i go to work and work like mad until its time to pick them up (if i'm needed). I usually try to help get her home, but she's usually tired in the afternoon and less active. With her harness Narelle can generally handle her herself.

Then i go back to work until its either too dark or i finish for the day - Daylight savings is making life easier [or is that harder :i dunno: ].

If its too wet i stay home and work my internet business. (I manage 12 websites and sell several organic products - from Organic garden products, seeds etc, to Organic Health and Personal care. So if i'm on the computer i generally leave the indy forum up and refresh the page periodically to see what all the other lawnies are up to.

If you consider that dribble too, i suggest you get your :Rain: out.

We did have a Pty. Ltd. company until about 4 years ago. We downsized dramatically and decided to restart smaller this time round.

If we ever go public, i'll let you know... ;) (he says sarcastically).
