For Lawn
Of the things I will not miss when I move out of here is having the untidiest front garden in the neighbourhood. The ironic thing is that we only have a patch of grass that is no more than 20 square foot to tend, but still it ends up looking like this:
It would not be so bad if it were not for the fact that those 4ft thistles did not disperse seeds all over the lawns of are house proud neighbours. You can see in this shot a little bit of next doors gardens:
Andy has finally seen the light though I think. I told him when he got it done he should not have bothered with a lawn, so now he is getting the lawn taken out , having it zapped with weedkiller and replaced with something that does not require any tending: dead wood.
I think the straw that broke the camels back was when he tried to “mow” the grass a couple of months back. He got a few feet in:
And then our poor, long-suffering Flymo gave up the ghost.
