So she mows her long?

Well, she said she'd only need to borrow it for a few hours, so maybe it was a shortmore she needed? gringringrin

Very difficult to get lawnmower out of that. Maybe English is not her first language.

Oh it definitely is!

Well, I know we've had threads on here before about mis-spelled words and bad grammar, etc - but I've just come across a real cracker today. On our local residents' group on Facebook, a woman was asking if anyone had a Longmore she could borrow. I was baffled as to what a Longmore was, until she replied to another comment that she wanted to cut her grass! grin
