Re: Lawnmowers.

I need to buy a new electric mower. I nearly got a hernia on Saturday when the petrol mower kept stopping, restarting it with pull thingy was a nightmare. Because the grass was so long and a little bit damp the cut grass kept getting wrapped round the blades and cutting out. I need to get an electric mower and a couple of long extension cables as the end of the garden is probably 35-40 foot from the nearest power.

Yeah I hadn't thought of either of those Patsy. Alternatively I could hire myself a nice hunky gardener.

Re: Lawnmowers.

I couldn't get the cover off the safety switch, the philips screw heads were chewed up so I've kicked it into touch and ordered a new one. It was second-hand when I bought it a couple of years ago.

Well if I advertise and come across a hunkyfemale gardener I'll send her your way Alan, but your wife may not be so keen on the idea.
