Re: Worst car advert ever ?

Just been in the back garden clearing up after little doggie before cutting grass.

I discovered that the phrase is a lie.
Tried 3 times to flick it over next doors fence, 2 times it struck on the shovel the 3rd it flopped into the fence and not in a particular hurry.

Re: Worst car advert ever ?

Yeah they do, lol

Nah what it is I was shiftiong the stuff to the back gate, but it was easier to throw everyhtign over the fence....ours and neighbours fence before bagging it outside.

And before people get the wrong idea yeah I cleaned up our dogs mess and the mess of the other dogs that think our fence is a toilet.
