Old Lawnmower Club member John Barnard was recently featured as a finalist in the Channel 4 series "Amazing Spaces Shed of the Year" with some of his lawn mower collection, in a shed, naturally. If you're in the UK you can catch up with the series by clicking here, but don't wait too long as the streaming service is time-limited and will become unavailable in a week or two.

We've heard from our special correspondent in the USA that volunteers at the Rough and Tumble Historical Association have completed restoring a rare Coldwell Steam Lawn Mower. This machine is now operational for the organisation's special 2016 Steam Show. It is believed to be the only operational steam mower in the world.
