Cutting the grass

[Randy Dipper]

Is it too early in the year to cut the lawns.

Too early for me, another few weeks

Keep it a bit longer, much better for bees, bugs, wildlife.
And it saves you a job

Did mine yesterday, but then I have an OCD-like attitude to my lawns

Too early for me. September will do when it cools down a bit and the wildlife have had their fill.

Unfortunately not everyone thinks the same so it will be a few weeks time.

Had to do mine last week because it was becoming a bit of a jungle.

Gave mine a cut last week and it just pulls the garden back together.

 

[Steer]

Just done mine yesterday. It looks absolutely awful now.

Still at risk of frosts. Too early yet.

Did mine this morning, nothing more relaxing than get the headphones on and cutting the lawn.

Far too early. Now is the perfect time to be taking the lawnmower to be serviced so when other half's ask the same question as the OP you can truthfully say how much you want to do the job, and will darling as soon as I get the lawnmower back.

Mine went in a week ago as I could sense that I was about to be asked about ours, which I was on Friday.
Now I'm in the good books for thinking ahead like that!

I scored Brownie Points by just getting it done.

Did mine on Friday, partly to clear the debris from recent storms.

Followed a Facebook thread about dodgy Heavy Metal videos about half an hour ago and ended up with Judas Priest's "Breaking The Law" as an earworm. Earworm is still there but to the words of "cutting the grass"!

Getting the music on and a beer open watching someone else cut it trumps that.

 

[Facefuzz]

Done mine last week as it was growing like hell.
Where’s best place to get petrol mower serviced? Cheers

 

[grumpyoldgit]

Still too early, wait until April. Good idea about getting the mower serviced.

Cutting the lawn and ironing are my relaxation tasks CtC, I'd rather let another man have my wife than touch my grass.
