Parishes seem to be struggling this year around here. I've got 3 this year, but the others just were not viable this time.

This is grass cutting by the way

Problem round here seems to be money!

They want to have less cuts but still pay the same rate per cut. I'm not doing that as it just makes a mess meaning too much time tidying up behind the mower. Plus more wear and tear on machines for no good reason

I had an offer for a large one at a Parish Council included what would be 2 man days just strimming around headstones. However they have their meetings with the public... So the lowest price always wins as there are people there wanting money for x y z so they'd never spend a few k more to have the village actually maintained properly and instead bounce between crappy contractors every two years.
