Has anyone got any tips on how to do this.
As my allotment is so wet this year I have bought a racing hovercraft, 78bhp single propulsion fan and adapted the rear to mount my Howard 350 single furrow plough, but I'm a bit unsure as to technique.
How to plough with a Hovercraft.

Dear Peter, i must admit i don't know much about them, but when operating it, i think you must be careful of your skirt, especially if it's that favourite pink one of yours.

Kind Regards, Old Herbaceous.

Looking at the size of said Hovercraft, I suggest you contact the "Port of London Authority" you might require a pilots licence.Though should you be Dutch,you might get away with it, [The Dutch were the only ones brave enough to bring food up the Thames during the plague, so a gratefully Britain excused them requiring a licence} here ended the first lesson] shallot man

Great idea! We have a leg of the european hovercraft speed and endurance race here in France at lake Rabodange, Approx 4km away from my land perhaps I could enlist them to plough my 7 acres, Should take less than 30 secs and no morning after back ache!
Living stress free in rural France! A dream come true!
