    Don't need to, rabbits do the job at the moment.

    My OH did ours weekend before last then the binmen couldn't get down our street last week as it was blocked. Fortunately they collected it this week otherwise it would be getting pretty unpleasant in the bin with fermenting grass and food waste.

    I mow without the box, most of the time. It doesn't seem to make any difference. :eek:

    Did mine yesterday, almost like a spring day in Devon. Makes the whole front garden look better!

    Never stopped mowing just the frequency has changed. Summer once or twice a week, winter once a fortnight or less if it stays dry. Here in West Cornwall the grass never seems to stop blooming growing.
