Not strictly DIY, but whilst mowing the back lawn today I think I may have blown the motor on the lawn mower. We have clay soil, which as you can imagine holds the moisture very well and given all the rain we’ve had lately, I probably shouldn’t have been mowing with an electric mower. Anyway, I decided to call it a day when I could smell dry roasting Flymo. Still, I’ll see how it goes next time and if all else fails, think about getting a petrol driven one. (They don’t do LPG powered ones, do they?)
