When in doubt......

........read the instructions!
New mower purchased - need a degree in something (not sure what) to fathom out how to put it together.
Fortunately No2 son took on the job in exchange for supper.
Hope it stays fine tomorrow to try it out.
Now have the job of taking the old mower to the tip (together with all the other items sitting in the shed waiting for disposal)
Did notice that the shop had a 'robot' mower for sale for £1200. Wonder if it works?
