Ok thanks, was only asking as the guy down the road (retired gardener)
told me not to untill March the earliest.

Well, he used to be right, but the seasons have changed now.

You can cut the grass, but leave a decent amount of growth, 2+ inches. If
you cut it too short at this time of year it will be a bit of a shock to it.
It is never good to cut grass from very long to very short, it should always
be topped.
