Had a few in our garden growing up. Lovely things. Properly ancient too in terms of evolution, one of the few things to stick around pretty much unchanged. Must have cost a bit to get one that size.

First mow on second lowest setting!! A setting that I haven’t seen since around the 00’s lol normally have to cut at the half way point!
have two clumps of weed grass and 2 larges spots of weed outbreaks that I need to take care of. Also try and get the outskirts a little more thicker. What would
Be my best action?
Rather pleased with the outcome for my first attempt at a lawn renovation. I still have a lot of leveling to do. Might just be quicker to put a mini bull dozer in there in a few years time. I have much enjoyed doing the work.

Very nice.
But that won't last long unless you keep putting the effort in. Mine was like that after I ripped it up and seeded it. Doesn't look like that anymore

Mines a nightmare, but I don't have a flat lawn like Kinnell, mines all banks and levels. But I pulled out an entire wheelbarrow of dandelions yesterday, just off one bank.Very nice.

Have all the gear now!! Spent a little bit more in the hope of it would make the job and maintenance a little bit easier. This was more a test run to see if I liked it and how much work is involved.Very nice.

Going to replace the fences with Laurels as wood just doesn't last and I much prefer the look and all the wildlife they bring in.
It's the watering that's a bit pita. When I'm installing the laurels I might look at installing irrigation.

What's this about a wife cutting the grass?! You're more likely to see my cat cutting it. In fact....
