Hi. We have been gardening for 20 years & been on the forum for 15 years with many recommendations. We have been laying turf recently as it is a really good time of year to do this. One, because our gardens are not much in use & the growing season has started. It is usually needed to rotovate the soil to get air into the soil , then add topsoil , a weed & feed solution, then rake & rake level to take out stones & clumps . Use scaffold boards to lay the turf in a brick pattern to bind it. Keep an eye on the turf re watering, ie, if you get the grass going green at the joints , you need to increase watering.

We offer a first free maintenance with our projects to help you maintain your lawn throughout the year

Hope that helps

    • So glad to know, some places sell decent food.. not just dumped in microwave to be reheated and to be charged a premium in pricing..  
    • a (clean) nappy/pamper, it was like it had snowed in the garden.  The absorbent stuff inside spread everywhere.  Can I have my gardening gloves back please.
    • They've left all kinds of things in my garden including gardening gloves and shoes, not to mention scavenged food and packaging. Once they left an unopened vacuum pack of smoked trout, the next day some pita bread. All a bit biblical.
    • From memory foxes only became a regular sight in the 90s, the attached article says they first appeared in the 30s becoming far more common in the 80s.  Apparently, whilst we think that urban foxes live longer than rural due to their 'easy' life few will make it over the age of two.  In towns they are far more crowded than their natural habitat where they are more territorial. I've never seen foxes and cats fighting but once saw two cats squaring up to each other and a watching fox went up and butted its head against one of the cats.  There's a video on youtube of a cat and fox facing off when the cat is eating outside, but it wont let me embed on this post.  Get too close and I'll scratch you. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2022/oct/15/urban-foxes-are-they-fantastic-or-a-growing-menace My main issue is leaving things out like gardening gloves and they go or are shredded.  One stole a bag of bird food in front of me, took it next door, shredded the bag and then left it.
