Does anyone you know nearby want to patch up their lawn? ;-)


Not that I know of Sacha.

Do you think I can burry the sods face down without the grass gowing through
later?



I haven't done this myself but the received wisdom is that if you bury them
deeply enough, you can do that. And IIRC, 6" or a little more is "deep
enough".
I haven't seen this done with turves but I've often seen unwanted plants
outside a garden gate with a 'free, please help yourself' notice. I suppose
you could try that, having watered them well so they don't frazzle.
