I can't shift my 6 ft+ husband so I don't envy you needing to shift a 12 metre one. Mulch is a cool name though I must admit.

We put in 15 metres of mulch last year. I still haven't got around to organize it yet for this year but we will need much less this time.

Its all the rage in QLD and its called a Mulch Bluetooth Bag, when its enabled you can talk to other mulchers.....you can get them from Bunnings and Mitre 10.

If you can go for the deluxe version it detects bullshit which as you may know is very good for roses and tulips as a mulch. Comes with a built in deoderisor

Its a fantastic invention, its great, if thats your bag

Here's a music mulcher.......

If you're going to be clever with the comments, at least use the right wear Presumably because she'd lost them

I noticed that, but thought pointing out one mistake was enough for one night I'm not even going to comment on the 'correction'

Look out for the Turkey Mulcher as it attracts lots of flies
