Shoutout to the Wadestown courier guy

Ran into him twice recently and he was lovely both times. He even seemed to consider moving his van to give me a park, which sparked the need to post this- a courier who was concerned about where he stopped his vehicle?! Great guy.

ISO a mower that probably doesn't exist yet

I would really love some help here.

I would like a robotic mower that I can put onto a lawn, have it map/go around the outside of the lawn (I could do this with a remote control?) and then it mows the inside of the mapped area.

I know this exists with ride ons now, (although I am talking about a smaller mower- just saying I know the technology exists) and it is essentially what my old school roomba did (vacuumed without mapping).

The reason I am so keen on this is that I would like to hitch the charge station to my EV (I can hook it up so the charge station is on/by the lawn) and use this for my gardening service.

I appreciate that it takes ages for robot mowers to mow lawns, and they at times need to mow it every 3-4 days- that works really well for the lawns which I'm thinking of (staff are there multiple times a week, we are unable to set up stations there to have a mower there permanently)

I've reached out to some people who program arduinos but no luck...

Selling a car, don’t want to get scammed

We are selling a vehicle at the moment for around the $10-15k mark.

There is some discussion in our household about the safe way to accept payment.

Is there a way to accept online payment on the day safely? I’ve heard of people can get the transaction reversed after time.

Is it out of line to say we want cold hard cash?
