This is what the lawn looks like at the end of Feb. It has been snowed on (the snow settled on it much thicker than anywhere else so it must be much colder?) and I can’t honestly say that this is the new grass from the turf, or the old grass that was left alive that is poking through.

There are lots of worm casts on it as well.

Note the culprit is still in the background, this time with a ladder as well as a cricket bat.
