Sorry to hear that. If you were my neighbour, I'd mow your yard without hesitation. My neighbours are quite a polarising experience. Some would lend you a genset during a cyclone, others would threaten you with a screwdriver and steal your car. I actually have the latter on camera...

[* ... because, when I was about 10 years old - as soon as I was big enough - my Dad gave me the job of mowing the 'lawn', which may seem OK, but we lived on 2.5 acres!]

Familiar experience. My Old Man worked far away half the time. We had 5 acres with the expectation that 2-3 of that would be mowed. I just wish Dad could have afforded something better than the $50 repair shop abandoned mower - half the effort went into starting it...
