One of the thing I love about being British is that we the British do eccentricity so exceedingly well.

The nation's foremost garden machinery collection,
a multi-award winning unique museum is a treasure trove of over
250 restored machines relating to a bygone era.
Museum Curator Brian Radam has supplied exhibits to the BBC,
and TV crews as far a field as China visit to complete documentaries.

I remember my dad spending many hours mowing
our extensive lawn when I was a child and when my sister and I
reached our teens we often attempted the mowing,
the mower however always ran away with me, never one to be beaten,
I kept trying, I still love the smell of a newly mowen grass.
This musem is a truely hidden little treasure,

Okay, I may be a geek but this sounds fabulous! I love quirky wee museums dedicated to obscure things - often much more satisfying than massive ones where there's too much to take in!
