    Hi All

    My front lawn looks dry enough but no way the back garden yet, so I may just give a quick high hair cut just to tidy it up.

          No way- I am the same as HarryS full of moss, finding the grass is like looking for a needle in a haystack -the only thing it has going for it is that it's green.

            I thought sod it to the scissor trim, with the garden moving down hill from right to left i decided to start digging the lawn edge out to put curbing stones in i got last summer,hopefully that will hold 8ft of it back for a bit :dunno:

            Grass would be lifted not cut as the soil is soaking.

              I might have done today, it sure needs it, but I had to take the mower apart to get it into the shed for the winter.
              So until,
              I can get some of the stored plants out of the garage I'm not putting the mower back together.
              Does that make sense?:)

                    It did cross my mind this afternoon but decided against it.
                    Will give it a light raking in a few days then cut it if its dry enough.
