No Modern Home Should Be Without…

Drop in and dribble on about nothing serious. Seriously a mad place to hang out. Better to avoid it if you're not in the mood!!! If you're determined to be sad, bad, mad & angry then move along!!!

Thanks, but no thanks Ray. :D We have enough useless junk at home already.

Dave,

I'm an ideas man. If you put this all through the back-yard. The lawn mower becomes the useless piece of junk. And imagine that, no more watering. mowing. You could even throw out the hose and sprinkler. Oh the water savings too. wow. All because of fux grass.

And, hows this. Even better, Ray could put it in his faux creek bed garden.

the fake lawn is popular around Murray Bridge, they even use it in the traffic islands and up the sides of the foot path, freaked the dog out the first time he walked on it ..... no watering or mowing required, but they still have to sweep and vacuum it :lol:
Mannum seems to prefer the white rock/gravel lawn idea, just needs an occasional spray with weed killer when the grass tries to grow through it :roll:

:shock: I'd be staying well clear of any plastic that lite up at night .... after a metal shed burnt to the ground, I'm not really sure about anything that lights up at night without manually switching it on ....
