more substantial grounds than the preceding property. That's great, but the gardens need some TLC - the lawn in particular.

I gave it a mow on Sunday and there are various weeds left over. What is the best course of action to take on them? Do I just dig them out with a trowel (will take ages) and then re-seed. Or is there a weedkiller that I should be using before re-seeing?

The garden needs sorting before summer, though. I have already decided where the wicket will be cut :nod:

on my lawn it seems to be doing it all..not quite sure how it can tell weed from grass? but thats the science I guess :-)..Ijust rake after 7 daysto remove weeds n moss, maybe reuse on stubborn ones / areas..same again 7 days later ..then maybe do one round of seed then sit in deckchair and open a cold one

first run of 2016. Got a route planned that takes me out of Valledemossa, through Deia, above Soller and all the way up to Pollenca, then cuts through the mountains and cuts back inland before one final climb back to Valledemossa :cloud9:

If you're really really up for it, you can go past Port de Pollenca and up to Cap Formentor lighthouse. An extra 20km with a good bit of up and down :-)

I can't quite believe how they are able to cycle up such steep hills (the total rise is 1000m)

They come round quite often, not offering tarmacadam based services but your average "up a ladder scoping out your house" gutter cleaning or loose tiles on your roof services.

Thieving pikey *******s.
