Fruitcake I've never had a lawn that went stripy like that no matter how hard I tried! But here we don't tend our 'lawn' at all as there's too much of it and the grass is rubbish mixed creeping stuff with paddock grass plus gazillions of weeds/wildflowers. So it doesn't get fed or scarified or any of those things you are supposed to do.

Lawn = place to ride bikes, play football, netball, volleyball for family.

If its long and wet and messy then its not as good.

Hate mowing it though, and can't decide if it looks better uncut or cut.

Pelmet mans garden is fantastic.

Quite true - lawns are there for a bit of green in the depths of suburbia I guess, but apart from that a bit pointless - oh they're good to sunbathe on.
