Motor mower
Old four stroke Masport motor mower. This has not used for well over a year, as we have been away for much of that time. It is in quite a sorry state. I have now bought a small electric mower which is far more suitable for our small lawns, and far lighter to get up and down the steps between the two levels. Until mid 2022 I was still using it regularly, even if starting it needed a lot of patience. It has not started recently.
