Having recently seen some of 'Big Brother', they have used Astroturf in the garden this time, as in all other times the real grass has been destroyed through lack of care and watering.

Has anyone used Astroturf in their gardens and is it any good ?

not got any myself, but i think it`s a very good idea, especially if you have children and if you don`t like cutting the grass. xxx

It's not something I've ever contemplated having CJ. I think I'd rather see the birds rootling for worms in the real stuff.

Well the advantage would be lack of maintenance but isn't that secretly the fun in having a real lawn? Smile I'll pass C. J.
