For us Yanks, I looked up "strimmer" (at AskOxford)- noun/ trademark / an electrically powered grass trimmer with a cutting cord which rotates rapidly on a spindle.

David - thanks for looking this up!

Matt - a very clever take on an all-too-common theme...

David - thanks for the transatlantic translation and for the profusion of Tom Clausen's work on f/k/a. Tom is the master of family haiku/senryu, in my view.

Paul - thanks for this, am recovering from over-exposure to Ruddles County at present...
