    that is a fantastic job. So where did the clippings go? Is that cooch or kik? I did a similar length yard today but nowhere near that finish. It was all weeds and customer expectation was not high. Poor excuse I know.

    Judging by the before and after shadows it took you 1hr and 50mins. Am I close?

    probably 90min, half was edging, clippings were much less than expected and blown into the garden beds where they were all but invisible...should point out this client calls once or twice a year expecting it done the next day, l was able to do it but wasn't too fussed - very happy with the result all the same (a bonus was all the plums fallen, yum)

    edit...actually l think l was only there for an hour or so, was all done in a single pass
