Default Roller pushing

Basil, Basil Jnr and I were pushing a roller around the village yesterday, on a little test run, following a certain amount of head scratching !

Problem solved in the end, all it needed was Buzzy Bee's input !!

And a bit of dodgy video !

The Burrell performs very well, steady away loads of power to hand, the button only touched once... that was for effect, rollers owner video.

And here it is. Sorry it's Been so long coming. Technology is not my forte.

Many thanks to all who helped that day including my wife for filming.
Will post another if this works.
Make sure you have your sound on. Great accoustics.
