EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming vintage photograph, we are transported back to the summer of 1969 in Farnborough, Hampshire. BOAC pilot Pat Alley takes a break from his high-flying adventures to demonstrate his unique mowing method in his own garden. With a mischievous glint in his eye and a motor-driven mower at hand, Pat showcases an innovative shortcut for maintaining a pristine lawn. As he effortlessly maneuvers the machine across the grassy expanse, circles of neatly trimmed turf appear behind him like magic. The sight is both mesmerizing and humorous, capturing the essence of 1960s ingenuity and British wit. Amidst the backdrop of lush greenery and blooming flowers, it's evident that gardening serves as more than just a chore for Pat; it is an opportunity for relaxation and self-expression. His passion shines through as he effortlessly combines technology with nature's beauty. This delightful snapshot by Alisdair Macdonald encapsulates not only a moment frozen in time but also represents an era when simplicity met innovation. It reminds us that even amidst our busy lives, there is always room for creativity and finding joy in everyday tasks - whether soaring through the skies or tending to our gardens.
