Abstract/Contents:Summarizes a 3,000 euro damages claim made by Ian Wilson against Caldwell Golf Club Ltd., Caldwell, Renfrewshire, United Kingdom. Explains that "he [Wilson] was required to cut grass on the bank of a burn," and "to cut the grass, he [Wilson] had to stand at the top of the bank and push the mower down and pull it up again. As he [Wilson] was pushing the mower down, he slipped and lost his balance. His left foot slipped under the mower, which he was unable to switch off." Adds that "as a result, two toes of his left foot were severed," and "another toe had to be amputated." Mentions the club's response to the incident.
