    Weibang. Head and shoulders better than anything else on the market at that price. My Weibang virtue 50 was £599 plus £30 for the high lift blade, brilliant machine. I ran a Weibang 19” Legacy roller with BBC a couple of years ago, different level finish etc but it is very heavy. Has a fan gizmo on the bed that picks up everything! I’m probably going to go back to it when my Cobra pro needs replacing.

    Hi Brad
    Nice video as always and you earned your £ 👍. With regard to the borders on the first job I would personally NEVER put any type of gravel anywhere near a lawn. There’s too much chance of it ending up in the grass and ending up going through a window 😂.
    As for the text from the “tenant” as other people have said your contract was with the landlord so if they were happy ( which they were) that’s “ job done” 👊.
