Now that the water had receded a little I braved water full of dog do-do to push the mower to where it should have been on Saturday. I unscrewed the spark plug an of course water gushed out, then to my surprise I undid the oil drain and pure oil came out, so I quickly tightened it and checked the dipstick, wow no water ingress! yippee, that should make life much easier.
I'll leave things to dry out a bit now and hope the battery can hold a charge.
Here's a shock photo, Jimmy cleaning but Olivia thought the bonnet was a bit grotty.
The water was down to only a bit over my knees, so because I don't own any shorts made in the hideous current fashion for near ankle length I was able to do a bit while keeping my shorts dry.
