Twice a week for the front lawn - rear lawn is out of sight so slightly neglected and takes 4-5 times as long to mow in the first place!
I think mowing twice a week has really helped thicken the grass up.
I do a third of my lawn every 2 weeks, but may increase it if there's been a bit more growth than normal...I think mowing twice a week has really helped thicken the grass up.

I’m sure half the time, even in the US as well as the UK they’ll take stuff you might not normally expect them to take as they know it’s value and how to move it on.
At our local recycling centre the other week a guy was sitting by the electricals skip snipping off the cables from unwanted appliances - copper prices have recently gone through the roof. I’m pretty sure that wouldn’t be a council initiated policy.

I just got new neighbours. Couple of middle aged gay men moved in about eight weeks ago. Bumped into them one day in the driveway as I was spraying the weeds and chatted briefly. Both seem pleasant and good mannered.
Thing is they never seem to stick a nose out of the door and they're completely silent. Not even the TV in the evening (which suits me tbh as we don't either).
Nothing. Not a peep.
It's like having mice; you don't see them or hear them - you just know they're there.
Both work from home apparently, but doing what I have no clue.
Previous neighbours, as nice as they were, had a couple of teenage daughters and a six year old boy, so we got used to a bit of a racket now and then, but the new fellas might as well be Trappists.
Trying not to speculate what they're up to.

I mean, who does all the cooking and cleaning?

Well I got chatting to my rather odd elderly neighbour on the way to pick the kids up from school this afternoon. In his usual fair weather attire of just shorts, socks and sandals.
He preceded to tell me what a cracking pair of legs my wife has whilst licking his lips and with a certain look in his eye. Dirty old bd!

My neighbours below me are like this. Never hear them. Rarely see them. Often get the smell of what they are cooking as you walk pass their door. They take parcels in for us and leave them outside our door if we aren’t in or I’m on nights. Thing is they never seem to stick a nose out of the door and they're completely silent.

They are the perfect neighbours. Although they did just step over my girlfriend when she had a tumble down the stairs and hurt her leg and couldn’t get up.
Other neighbours are a right pain however. Three cars in the household. They have an allocated parking space and a garage but use neither. Really causes a problem. Another uses their parking space as a gym as they are a PT. Parks so it’s a pain getting into our drive but not quite bad enough we can’t get in.
When we move I want a two/three car driveway!

Yep, it would have made more sense if I'd mentioned that they are in the ground floor apartment below me. They are the perfect neighbours. Although they did just step over my girlfriend when she had a tumble down the stairs and hurt her leg and couldn’t get up.

They've moved on from blokes drinking beer laced with twigs.
Bloke over the road from me wears sandles and his boxers / short shorts only to jet wash his drive only the boxers have a massive hole in the back so his crack is on show.............
