Default Have you mowed the lawn yet?

Good grief not a chance yet. The grass around here is looking like it
did at the end of summer '76, golden brown. The snow drops are just
starting to bloom and more of the daffs are 1" above the ground, the
most advanced might be 2".

Been quite a thaw in the last 36 hrs our clearance heaps from the
snow that fell on the 27th Feb (3") and 2nd March (2") have finally
disappeared. The remnants of the larger drifts (5') from the Dec/Jan
period are reduced by 50%.

They are still skiing on Yad Moss a few miles down the road, 18" or
so on the top but it's starting to get a bit patchy low down.
