@BorderSportsLtd Sorry for your loss. He will be greatly missed 😢

It is with a heavy heart I officially announce the passing of Neil Thompson. He suddenly passed away last Wednesday, 30th July. I would like to thank all our customers and suppliers for their understanding during this difficult time. Regards Joanna (Neil's wife)

@camplou1 Yeah how about you?

@Moore20Tony Of course I've missed you, keeping busy? X

@Moore20Tony Hi Tony long time no see how're you keeping? I hope all is well with you xx

@gregevansmg I'm not sure the glass is big enough!

Greenkeepers & irrigation contractors this morning

@Nathan_Scarff90 Get in quick. You don't want to be missing out on your favourite restaurant again!

Best get booking dinner tables 🥩

It's time for the Master's but the UK climate isn't! The last 7 days have seen no rainfall and ET of 22mm. The UKGP is approximately 2.04 with GDD (6oc) at 21.65 for the week. Cold and dry soils creating sub-optimum growth. Keep calm its only the Masters and come on Rose!

@CathcartCastle With something like that as long as it is we made and does a good job why spend more then you need to. I will have a Google see how much they are.

@Moore20Tony It is.. does a great job for us. I sometimes find Greenkeepers can get a bit 'precious' about which brands they use... This cost a fraction some of the coloured options.

A great week to get the fairways double scarified, blown, brushed and cut... There's a golf course under there somewhere.. 🤘 #jarmet @cathcartcastle

Very true, we are only at 5 degrees. Unfortunately, some people only see the sun during the day and not the frost at night.

@erinrix01 Milk for cookies seems like a good deal

I just wanted one cookie. Trying to save money, so buying one was out. Then my ADHD kicked in, baking is my happy place, after all, so 🤷‍♀️ Fast forward: the kitchen smells amazing, flour is everywhere, and instead of one cookie, I now have 60. Send help… or milk 😂😂 #baking

@erinrix01 Go Erin 🤣

Two men to deliver it, but only one woman to unpack and build it, coincidence? I think not. 😉 The home gym is officially coming together, and this treadmill is ready to roll (literally). Now, to actually use it… 💪💪 #BuiltByMe #HomeGymVibes #joinmyjourney #aussieinengland

@OAS_Jez @VLGCgreens Thank you. Yes, that's the one. Fingers crossed for mid-March delivery.

@Moore20Tony @VLGCgreens Hi Tony, this one is the Appli-Tec Dual that was launched at Saltex and came out end of last year. The NEW Appli-Tec2000 was the one launched at BTME and will be available form mid March this would be the one you are referring to below.

With temperatures rising, an end to the east wind and a bit of rain it's a good time to get this year's first granular out. It was also the maiden voyage for my new spreader, fair play for a budget the value was amazing. Many thanks @OAS_Jez

@erinrix01 Exciting times😀

So I did a thing… It still doesn’t feel real, but I can’t wait to turn this house into a home—one memory, one cozy corner, and one DIY project at a time. Cheers to this next chapter! 🥂🏠 #HomeSweetHome #NewHomeVibes #DreamsDoComeTrue #aussieinengland

Howdy folks. Just popping my head in. Hope you're all doing good and keep things green lol. Just giving a few pointers as to why I ain't been on here much. 👍

@Craig14Dawson Thanks. I did think about AstroTurf but was not sure if it would weigh enough once the sand comes out.

@Moore20Tony We Used a mat with astroturf underneath, worked well on light dressings or after using the power brush for heavier dressings it worked well to finish it off.

Does anyone use a rubber drag mat like this for working in top dressing?

@les8thomas Thank you for the advice. There do not seem to be many coco mats available. There are more coir ones which look very similar but not sure if they are or not.

@Moore20Tony Have not tried that, but very happy with the coco mat, found the metal mat is too aggressive on greens

@wilsoncleaver 👍

@Moore20Tony TJ golf sell them.

@wilsoncleaver I will have a look at them. Thanks mate.

@Moore20Tony Coco mat is better I found if you want something less aggressive. Or a sports metal brush if its just a light dusting.

@wilsoncleaver Yes was thinking it would be better for the grass. Did wonder if it was because it was old mat. Maybe metal is the best option.

@Moore20Tony Same Tony. Just broke up all the time. Are you wanting something less aggressive than the chain matt?
