    Another regular of mine, there's an enormous brush box tree in the backyard and its constantly shedding leaves and bark, bloody annoying, took a photo but somehow doesn't do the mess and long grass any justice. I had to be quick when I took the 2nd photo before the tree made a mess again

    I have the vac attachment set up on my spare blower which is an Echo, use it for cleaning up after hedge trimming jobs and does a top job, makes quick work of any crap that needs to be cleaned especially in and around garden beds. I wouldn't be without it!

    On this particular job I blow all the rubbish onto the lawn with my main blower and pick everything up with the mower but due to the vast amount of mess on this property, blowing around the side of the house and some of the garden beds seems to make more of a mess, all the crap gets caught up in the plants and looks s***house so its just easier picking everything up with the vac.

    Apart from hedging cleanups this is the only job I use it on and I reckon it works great.

    Looks good Courty. Even if you had only mulched it, it would have made a huge difference. I don't know why people dont throw a bit of mulch around before selling their houses. It just makes everything look so fresh.

    This a lawn cut with my new 26 inch Masport cylinder mower- the stripes are a bit weird because the stripes from my old smaller mower are still showing, and an irrigation job at a school from about a month ago before the turf was laid.

    Neil
    It's Red Cypress fines,$90 a cubic meter. Its the only mulch I use for jobs like this one because I know it looks good.I have a job after Xmas that needs 45 cubic meters,I'll use bush mulch for that one. Tea tree goes for $60 a cubic where I buy from.

    I agree Bry,quick clean up and lay some mulch makes the gardens look like new.
    Your stripes looking good as always
