I offered to finish the lawn off, but he refused. Back to smoking a pack a day as well now. Good to see your daughters helped. Thats also one good reason to have 4 stroke engines - people not used to mowing can just put straight fuel in them without harm (so long as it doesn't run out of oil). I know guys who keep a file containing relavent garden info just in case. Eg - sprinkler controller basic settings, how to start mower, line trimmer, check oil, mix 2 stroke.

Thx guys. Although the cardiologist said it wasn't a good one (as heart attacks go) I only had a one stent put it. I wasn't much overweight and ate pretty well, but I had a lot of Poo going on in my life at the time and I guess a combination of things set it on motion. Going fine now though. I never at any point got concerned that I would pass away. Life is much ore relaxed now, although having three daughters can be a bit stressful at times lol.
