g'day robo,

thanks mate.

not much into lawn follies myself anymore so long as it is green and
stays green through drought that's do me.

but anyway if you where to create raised beds as we do then by all
means layer the old lawn on the bottom over the newspaper and then
cover with say mushroom compost and then mulch it that will make a
good bed and minimise resource use ie.,. taking old turf to the tip.

anotehr way would be to pile it in the shape of a bed then cover with
newspaper and mulch, once growth activity has been ceased then use it
as a bed. we ahd some construction done here and saved some over
burden and created a great herb bed from that.
