Isn’t lawn mowing a restricted activity on total fire ban days? Could’ve sworn there was something about that
E: gave it a google, and it says it should be avoided, but obviously, “should” doesn’t indicate an obligation. However it does say have some musts for dry/not green vegetation, and also says that somebody MUST carry either a water (stores pressure) fire extinguisher that’s fully charged, correctly pressured, working, and has a capacity of over 9 litres, or a knapsack spray pump fully charged with water in working order with a capacity of over 9 litres
I gave it a google and edited dmy comment. Technically it isn’t illegal, they just say to avoid it. the restrictions do essentially say he must carry a fire extinguisher with over 9L capacity, but I doubt he would. Bloody tosser ngl
I know it’s not as bad in the city, but I just can’t shake my countryside instincts. If this was my neighbour where I used to live, he’d have gotten a firm backhander across the face by now, because he’d be risking burning the entire bloody town down
Fucking hot outside, so of course my neighbour is out there with his ancient mower.
The mower keeps cutting out and he’s swearing up a storm.
I’ve said it before, one day (like today) I’m going to find his corpse on the lawn next to his fucking mower.

Does Mr. Neighbour have a fire extinguisher?
Yes it’s restricted with some guidelines. I’m pretty sure my neighbour will ignore all warnings and continue anyway.

There’s very little fuel for a grassfire around. But I do get where you’re coming from.
Us suburbanites have very low survival instincts, especially entitled blokes over 80 (like old mate next door)
Hot = mows lawn
Raining = waters lawn
He’s wired back-to-front
Not sure he’s got wires left to be honest
I thought you were gonna find him passed out next to a hose?
If only…
