What about:
It would be advisable to replace both plug and socket as a pair to ensure a safe connection. If you do you must make sure you replace the socket with a socket and the plug with a plug, so you don't end up with exposed live pins.2 -

Its a 2 part plug connector

I was thinking of putting the plug end of one of those on the mower and then using one half of this to convert to the Flymo type

If it's that difficult to find, just replace both parts with a standard connector. Something like this https://www.homebase.co.uk/masterplug-heavy-duty-2-pin-flex-plug-and-socket-connector-orange/12845573.html
