Hi, My gardening book says its lawn month. We have raked it & the book
says it should be spiked & the holes filled with sand.
Our lawn is 17m x 15m and I think it will take ages to do with a hand
fork as it suggests.

Can such a thing be hired?
Does anyone know what the name of the machine is called?

Am I being too lazy, should I do it with my garden fork?

You can do it many ways, including your fork, but it's a big lawn for that.
You could walk up and down it inn high heels, that would work. But you
should probably hire a lawn aerator from your local tool hire place.
