Lawn mower repair woman

This morning was nice and sunny so James decided to cut the grass. I was sitting outside on the bench reading my book when I heard sounds of frustration from James. The lawn mower kept stalling. He was footering about with it trying to see what was the matter. I did a quick search on the internet: “Most likely reason for a petrol lawn mower to stall.” As I scrolled down the search results the consistently most likely reason was using old petrol. It turned out that James was using new petrol bought only two weeks ago, but he had not completely drained away the old petrol first, thinking that it would be well diluted by the new stuff. So James proceeded to empty all of the petrol out of the lawn mower, refilled it with new petrol, and voila! The lawn mower worked perfectly! James says that repairing lawn mowers could perhaps be my new career.
In the afternoon we visited Grandma and she reminded us that she has lots of rhubarb in her garden that we could use. James harvested it straight away and when we got home he stewed it and then made rhubarb syrup. There was a huge amount of rhubarb but after it was cooked and strained there were only two bottles of syrup! It will be delicious diluted with soda water.
