    I'd go for astro turf then, you can hose it down when it gets dirty, if you spill coke or stuff like that on it, and you never have to worry about cutting it, or feeding it, or weeding it, or patching it..Might be more expensive but possibly cheaper in the long run for time saved and lawn mower costs.

    Just to update! It took three of us three mornings and two of us also doing a little in the afternoon. The rotavating was pretty quick, problems arose mainly with getting the ground level. We had big craters and lots of potholes, but after hours of raking etc we got there in the end and the grass seed went down yesterday :beer:

    Congratulations, and seed down just in time, rain forecast later in the week to water it in for you
