    Can you make loo paper out of grass cuttings? I reckon it should be possible, but green skid marks might be a problem.

    Ours is in his late 60s/early 70s so I’ve told him not to come. Still paying him, but don’t want him putting himself at risk for the sake of our garden

    I've got one of those electric Flymo mowers. When I was turning it round to mow back down the lawn, I was
    digging it in and leaving a right mark in the grass. Wife gave me a red card and paid for the gardener to cut it.
    His mowers and strimmers are all petrol driven and I have to concede, he does a right job.

    Cut it twice, scarified it; sowed patch repair seed, watered it. But I’m only 70 years old so have plenty of energy
