Absolutely, but then maybe you would consider equipping yourself with a different model. One that requires that you mark boundaries with a special wire. And also come back to its charging dock by itself.

I used to cut the grass for my grandparents in my youth. They had a lawn mower you could drive. Now that was fun.

The vacuuming robots we've used in the house employed electronic barricades to prevent them from going into areas and rooms where you didn't want them.

This is my dream! But the wife keeps saying that before buying that she needs a Hermes handbag, The Grace Kelly type. So no vacuum robots.

Dreams against needs. Everybody looses.

Wonderful. A possible problem with that is that it might require too much of land. This could become a limiting factor of some relevance. I am considering only the practical aspects. The financial ones could become important too, not only for the fuel, the maintenance and the price of the contraption, but of the land itself.

Right now I am nursing a developing bruise on the outside of my right thigh

Getting out of the bath last night with left foot firmly out and on the mat, I lost my balance as my right leg came over the edge (bluddy deep bath).

It bluddy hurt too.

I live in Hochelaga, it is *almost* the best part of the best part of Canada!
And I'm shocked you don't think that les mouches noires et le verglas are the best of the best here!

What's the Cross affair? When were you here? Are you planning to come back? If so, I'll organize you a meet up!

In 1970 the FLQ had captured the Provincial Minister Pierre Laporte and the British Ambassador James L Cross. I was 13 then.
