Has anyone ever tried laying a mix of paving and creeping thyme or similar to fill the gaps? I've given up on reseeding my patchy lawn each year and want to try something different, but want a bit of greenery and don't want full paving.


When I read about paving online it mostly assumes you want to pave the whole thing so suggests laying down hardcore, using mortar and grouting around the stones etc. But if I want a mix, can I get away with laying stones into soil and planting around it? Or will they shift about too much? If so, what's the best thing to do? Any advice very welcome! Thank you in advance.


Also if anyone has any suggestions for container plants that will last for years, that would be much appreciated.

    • No one is arguing that people should cycle without lights or reflectors. Obviously they should. It is also a legal requirement. But the colour of someone’s clothing? Is it ok to wear navy? What about green? What shade? At what point should we have ‘no reason for sympathy’ if they’re in a collision? How many tone variations in their clothing before it’s ok to claim they’re ‘invisible’?

    • What a passionate thread this is. I have worked in cycling for years, am a cyclist, a driver, use public transport etc. Driving last night with my two young kids, who also cycle, we made the same observations. It was the kids who first asked me why are most cyclists wearing full black and no lights. We then played a game who can spot all the cyclists, and count those with lights and those without. This teaches them to look out for them but also not to put themselves in a position where we have to strain to find them.
