The botanic garden outside my window

I mowed the lawn in the weekend, and the hardest part was getting the mower started. It is the seCd time we have used the machine since it was serviced, and it used to start much easier. R pulled and pulled the cord, while I held h and c hid inside cos "He doesn't like the noise". Then I pulled for a bit, and thought I would check the spark plug. So I take off the little rubber thingy with the Cnector in it, and tried to undo the spark plug. No go. No go anywhere. So we went back to pulling. R then looked at the front and noticed I hadn't put the rubber thingy back on - evil look to me, puts it back on the spark plug and the mower starts first pull.

Do you reckon it might be that the Cnector thing was loose, and we accidentally fixed the problem?

The yard (american term that, but it is too small to be called anything else/grander) looks great with the lawn mown, and the edges done, and the bit of weeding has paid off, and the leaves are coming back on all the perennials. And the sun is shining down and all is well outside my window :)
