Not the sweetly-hit (and in my case rarely-hit) football shot that skims
an inch over the turf to nestle in the corner of the goal net, this daisy
cutter is an old but brutally effective Fly-Mo that not so much cuts as
masticates the grass and daisies, half of which go into the grass box while the
other half compacts itself to the underside of the Fly-Mo, transforming it into
more of a Drag-Mo, until it is scraped off at each emptying of the clippings;
twenty such tippings later the job was done, front and back – a good bank
holiday Monday’s work, allowing me to retire to watch the snooker final with a
clear conscience.
