Post by: tim on March 23, 2005, 11:40:47
But have you cut yours??

Only one of 3!!

PS Seeing the picture, it doesn't look cut??

PPS That's the 9 year old Maple that replaced the fallen Bramley (part of it) behind it.

OH cut ours at the weekend, it makes all the spring bulbs look so much better.  And always a sign of the better weather - makes me feel good! :)

I have cut the "formal" lawn twice so far this year, the rough lawns have only been cut the once.

I am in fact awaiting delivery of a new mower for the rougher areas. Should arrive today or tomorrow I hope.

In the end I opted for:

Well, had a look at the back lawn today - covered in dandelions and the creeping buttercup thingy. Had started round the edges to dig them up with the intention of creating a back garden veggie patch.
Not got much of a lawn in the front either but it has been cut this year!

First cut of the year last week.  Looks great and will probably get another trim over the long weekend.  Council have cut all of our verges today, the smell in the air was as green as could be!

My lawn's about a foot high in places - keep losing the dog.  Can't get lawnmower out of wash house - too many seed potaters to shift  ;D

It was lovely last week when I was at home with the windows open, listening to the sound of lawn mowers. They are so evocative of summer, it really made me happy.

And my neighbour cut his lawn for the first time, so my compost bins have a healthy load of grass cuttings mixed in.

I don't have a lawn. can't waste any of my precious space!
