It’s been a long time…

We obtained our new flymo yesterday and after a quick cup of tea got to work starting on the overgrown lawn in the back. After a cut and a rake and a couple of repeats we got the lawn down to an acceptable level. We even included a wild triangle at the top. The flymo certainly got a baptism of fire yesterday, no hard feelings lawn mower.

 

This is a dawning of a new era

Looks like we’re getting a new lawnmower tomorrow so we’ll be cutting the grass as soon as we assembled said device. We’ll be cutting all of it in the front and about three quarters of it in the back, keeping a bit wild as per. We’ll be waiting outside at Argos tomorrow at 11am tapping our imaginary watch if we see a member of staff through the window and will be mouthing “It’s gone eleven, it’s gone eleven”.

Weather-wise, not a bad weekend

The weather forecast was correct for the weekend, it was nice on Saturday and today wasn’t as hot but still not too bad. Our flymo has been on the blink of late, so until we when we get around to giving it a look and/or until we get a new one we’re going for a Suedehead look lawn-wise for the time being.

We’re still not taking any risks putting those tender plants out, the spuds are coming up and we’ve got sweet peas in the cold frame but weather-wise you never know what’s around the corner and give it a couple of weeks we should be out of the possible frost zone, fingers crossed.
