G'day Ian
You always find the important and interesting things!

This was a Farmette multi-purpose machine.
I always wondered whether we would find any ...

I feel this is a good example of agricultural / horticultural crossover ...
Where city and town meet country.
Brilliant!

Note how it could also be a .... reel mower!!!

Many thanks for mower spotting, mate!
