For days, I've been trying to work out how to turn this post into a joke that plays on the words "four lawn" and "forlorn."Fangirl Three wrote:I used to have four lawns. One at the front, and at the back, one big one and two small circular ones.

I do feel a bit wistful about no longer having the house and lawns. If I'd mentioned that, it might have spurred your creativity.
Gosh, it was this Friday in May 2 years ago that I moved out.

While de-mossing the block paving driveway with a wire brush thingy yesterday evening just as it was going dark....

Re: The gardening thread
It must have been about 9pm. That's awfully late to be out doing maintenance work.

It was indeed about 9pm, but as it was a slow and laborious project with minimal tools we were determined to get as much done as we could before it went dark and to give us a sort of head start for the next day.
It's all done now and the drive has returned to it's original brick-pink colour.

I do too actually. I don't mind a treelined mossy driveway myself, but a clean drive also looks nice.

Re: The gardening thread
I fight a losing battle over moss. I like it on my terrace, so my mother sneaks round when I’m out and gets rid of it.

Apparently it's a "Broad Bodied Chaser", type of Dragonfly, likes ponds, which is odd as I don't have one (yet).
I do have a swamp though...

Re: The gardening thread
Speaking of which, my lawns are a total state. I've not had the chance to do them in weeks, thanks to real life things and weather getting in the way.

The next time I do them, I'm going to have to get the hover mower out, as my cordless mower and my manual mower are not likely to be up to it.

I have noticed a lot of weeds and out of control stuff this year. I was out for a walk the other night and a street I’ve always admired was in a terrible state. I thought to myself, the fact that Poland is due to overtake UK living standards (and one or two Eastern bloc countries already have) is now showing.

Re: The gardening thread
That mower is an ironic concept now. You use it to maintain the garden that it's too hot to actually get out and enjoy.
