guy at work had it (has moved house now)

but he told me instead of cutting it, you have to wash it sometimes with a hose and broom.

i would of thought the rain would do that

You have to sweep your grass

Think how much of a dick you would look.

the evil witch who lives in the house which backs on to mine has an astroturf lawn, I swear I've seen her mowing it as well but that said, I'm not sure whether the "comic book guy" that lives with her is her son, her lover or in fact both...

Probably less of a dick that you'd feel spending an hour+ a week cutting it.

If I were to spend over an hour cutting grass a week I would be living in a castle.

We have a massive bit of grass at the front and side of the house and it gets cut every 3 weeks for half an hour tops.

Petrol lawnmower = 2 minutes to cut the grass unless you live in previously mentioned castle, and I hate cutting grass.

My dad looked at it for his house about 10 years ago as there was 3 of us playing sports of some description everyday but the cost for the area of grass was astronomical, guess it will be cheaper now but was enough for him to prefer a bald garden

Do you use scissors to cut your lawn? Get a petrol mower, quarter of the time!

Just bought real turf in the end as I had heard mixed reports on astraturf.

Spent the past week doing decking, levelling and turf......

It got a bit wild at one point & I begun questioning my skillz -

But eventually got it how I wanted it, Still a few wee bits to finish but almost there

Might stick some lights round the decking as well.........?

not really could drill and bolt thread them into the decking frame

Looks nice though

They can look good but I think i'm done here, i'll maybe do that on my next one. I quite enjoyed building the deck so next house will have an even more impressive one!!
