Farm Lawn Mower

Thorner Village Grass Cutting
I spent a little time in the village of Thorner a couple of days back, mostly to have a look at the church.

As I was walking back along the main street I saw the tractor being used to cut the grass on the village green. Nearby on a tree was a poster promoting the Thorner Gala on Saturday 2nd June on the village green, I think that the two are not unconnected.

Years back I had a good sized lawn and one of my favourite possessions was my old Suffolk Punch lawn mower, I loved that mower but I would have happily swapped it for the grass cutter used in the photo.

  2. Yes, great shot. The way the tractor is spitting out the grass is nicely caught
