Mr Woof thinks Dynamic lifter is fun-sized manure snacks. As I just spread 25kg of the stuff over the back yard he has been having a great time. I also spread 15kg of gypsum, then decided it's time to call it a day. Tomorrow I have to move the rest of the soil (about 1m^2^) to the back yard, level it off and scatter the grass seeds and a bit of fertilizer. Then it's just a matter of watering the seeds a couple of times a day until it sprouts and I should have lawn.

Edit: My neighbours pigeons approve of the grass seed. Hopefully they don't eat too much!
