Bosquets are traditionally paved with gravel, as the feature predates Budding's invention of the lawnmower, and since the maintenance of turf under trees is demanding (but see the modern bosquet at Amboise, right).
The Lawnmower Man is considered the first, seminal film to feature "Virtual Reality" as a cautionary tale becoming the number one commercially successful independent film of 1992, budgeted at just under $6 million and eventually earning over $150 million worldwide.
Lawnmower Deth were formed in Ravenshead, Nottinghamshire, England in 1987 under the name SCRAWM, by Dogg Bower, Dudd Hallam, Rich Brady and Chris Flint.

Lawnmower Deth then went on to play a main stage slot at Damnation Festival 2010 in Leeds and announced a further date at Redemption at Derby on 28 May 2011 where they'll be supported by ska band Addictive pHilosopHy and the thrash band Incinery amongst others.
Teams are required to use a one cylinder lawnmower engine provided by Briggs & Stratton, but significant modification is allowed.
