I dislike manicured lawns and gardens. It looks artificial.

Strange, I like it, possibly having parks work in my dim and distant
past, though it's nothing ,like mine.
I'm surprised no one has picked up on the patches on the lawn, I wonder
if he has a female dog?

In the actual newspaper photo they're not visible. Photoshop?! I
thought the saddest thing I read was that their son wasn't allowed to
play football on that lawn. When I think what my lawn looked like after
the children had 'mown' it on the little tractor, kicked a ball, done
'Wimbledon', played around it hiding behind trees and shrubs with bb
guns (think that's what I mean!) we'd all barbecued many, many times,
adults sitting out until dark chatting and wining and dining, dogs
digging holes etc. that lawn was full of memories for me and all of
them good ones. Whatever floats your boat etc. but I'd hate to go to my
grave with everyone saying "well………….she had a tidy lawn"!
