someone who lives in the 'soft' SE, I can't imagine what a nightmare
it must be the further north and west you are.

Seems like a lot of fuss over a patch of grass. If it wasn't for the
thick moss our "lawn" would be bare earth during the winter after the
grass has died back and the wind blows it away. During the summer
various grasses come through at different times, seems to be some
form of broad leaved rye that is doing well ATM. Then there is bit of
clover, creeping buttercup, a few daisys and a few other flowering
plants. All adds to the variety. B-)

Indeed. All I do to my grass is cut it every two weeks or so from April to
October.
