Last time I posted, I said that I would update on the lawn situation. Well, it’s done! We put the new turf down yesterday and there was a nice downpour this afternoon which should help it all root nicely.
Ok, so this is the lawn before I started.

Then we weed killed it, and started to take the old grass off – see here.

After clearing it and levelling it last weekend, we got the turf on Friday and started to lay it.

Hobbitmum does the whole kneeling thing – I do the lifting and carrying turf to site. Halfway there…

This is a slightly different view, from my upstairs bedroom window.

And a close up of the lovely lilies that grow at the edge.
