    @Chonky Racoon: I hope not. The lawn and garden took an awful hiding last summer. A happy medium would be fine.

    @Simon O Flaherty: school boy error. I checked the forecast yesterday and cut the lawn last night. This weekend I’ll be mainly sitting smugly, looking out at my freshly cut lawns!

    @Simon O Flaherty: Cut the lawn this evening. It will be mostly dry with the odd shower. The Norwegian weather app I have says it will be dry until Wednesday where I am in the west.
