Hire some mexicans at €2 an hour. They may also be able to put you in touch with columbians and dutchmen, who are also useful for lines and grass. -------------

Yep count I have them now you need a roller that is attacthed to the back of the lawnmower for the look you have on the pic . I just do mine in lines up and down and it looks great for a couple of days when cut  Now a mate of mine in London does his in one big circle as he has a square back garden unreal really . ------------- Lansdowne Road debut aged 52 and 201 days . |

Count, there is an alternative method ya could use, lines won't be as defined tho.
cut your full lawn at one level ant then go over the lawn at a different length on the mower.

| Not quite Bowsie. There's a big difference in painting or spraying over say the rugby marking on a pitch for a football match, or covering bald patches to make the grass look healthy for the cameras, than lads going out with a brush and tin of paint to paint the lines in their front garden.
