Lol - a bit like shaving, at least you can see where you've been.

I sort of did that 3 or 4 years ago in Penistone. It was April and first cut
of spring, a beautiful sunny morning when I started, but some heavy snow
showers came along and I wasn't going to give up halfway through!
Approx 1cm accumulated snow on the mower.

I've done the first weeding of spring with patches of snow still around
but never the lawn. After a Bolton winter it usually takes until late March
at the earliest for the ground to dry out so you son't leave footprints
in it!
