Just been watching a prog on Scottish ITV about an A+E Dept . A gardener came in who used a rotary mower and tried to sort a jammed blade without switching it off first and when it unjammed it hit his finger and cut it and also broke a bone .
They then showed a clip of someone ( probably him) using a petrol driven mower while wearing open toed sandals . Some folk just never learn.
WHat's wrong with the sandals? How many times have your (shoed) feet got in the way of a petrol mower? I mow the lawn in bare feet, and I would really have to pull off some strange bodily contortions to get my toes anywhere near the blade, shoed or not!

I mow mine in a thornproof jacket and tough boots. The wilderness is all around, trying to get back in...
Yeah, I think he should have worn a condom too... you never can be too safe ;-)

What happens if you were mowing and you slipped, feet first ?
I didn't know that you were *that* near Norfolk.... :-)
