Deepest sympathy
looks like you have that old fashioned real grass  :-\
if it gets wet (due to weather / rain) it grows and requires trimming in height  :(
30 mins per week cutting grass x 32 weeks growing season  = 16 hours work per year
(2 days work @ 8 hours )

We could cable tie some flowers wrapped in cellophane to your fence instead?  :-*

FTFY  ::)

My pet hate, flowers wrapped in cellophane littering the countryside!  >:( 

If people have to leave a floral tribute remove the plastic FFS and then the flowers will just rot away.  ;)

Absolutely fine weather here. 25°C, sunshine pure. October plays summer.

Do you have any British blood in you, Rolf? Your obsession with the weather is definitely an Anglo Saxon trait.

Trouble with that theory Stemo is that neither the Angles nor the Saxons were British ::)

Oh

Same Problem here. I was born in Bremen. North Sea. Living now deepdown southwest for 20 years. I am still a stranger, because of my language. Bremen guys speaks German. People here speaks "Badisch". Very strange.

Anglo Saxons come from Germany, Denmark and Northern Holland. Saxons come from Saxony Germany, which might give a clue on weather interest. :y STEMO is an honorary American with his geographical knowledge. :P

A Danish fella once said to me "My ancestors the Vikings raped and pillaged across England"   ::)

I replied "No, my ancestors raped and pillaged across England, yours stayed at home and looked after the women and goats!"  ;D

Viking raids with rape and pillaging form a major part of early English history and have left a permanent imprint on our DNA.
