Thanks Jack, I've prempted your response and had already told the lady that no one had been forthcoming with a valuation. From other questions and responses on this forum, I sort of realized that you would be the only person replying, which is a pity that more forum members don't actively participate. But I suppose from the tone of your response and your attack on me and your assumed impression of me , that I am not surprised that the forum does not have a lot of contributors!
I offered to buy the mower from her and unsurprisingly she advised that she would speak to her husband about the offer. I think she is greatly appreciative of the information I have forwarded onto her about the mower. I think everyone appreciates forums like this , that they can go to, post a question and get a good response. That's an assumption. The beaten join the silent onlookers.
