The green, green grass of home

or, the green shoots of recovery !

I prefer the green shoots of recovery as my lawn took a bit of a hammering during our exceptionally hot summer. The fact that I am too mean to switch the automatic watering system on didn't help either. We had some big bare patches but just lately with all this warm autumn sunshine (played golf in my shorts again today) and some heavy overnight dews, the lawn has suddenly made a miraculous recovery. Of course, this means I shall have to cut it again tomorrow.

I also remember only too well Tom Jones 1966 hit song. Showing my age again.
