Title: The Curious Case of The Missing Grass!
Post by: Michael Alexander on March 11, 2009, 11:04:07 AM
Whilst going for a walk last week, I stumbled apon a mystery...... from the road, not visible, but as you cross the green lawns that surround the Seven Sister Rocks, there is to be seen a curious hole where a patch of lawn has been removed...

Where has it gone? Who took it? Shall It be returned? Is this the Nambian Version of Crop Circles? Can anyone in the know explain the Curious Case of the Missing Grass?

Look for someone with a new piece of lawn! Amazing. Maybe it's easier to replace your lawn every few weeks with a piece taken from the green spots around town than to water your own.... why didn't I think of that?

Seems like there might be a 'snake in the grass' somewhere....

some plotting and future plans being cooked up here - the granddad, dad and grandson in cahoots about something against that awsome 'matriarg' squad....    cat1.gif

I see a whole lot more grass has been dug up around the rocks over the last couple of days.  Its all piled up in squares.  Why????   idontknow

@Sean , did you spot this from the air?   image201

Funny enough, I walked past there about an hour ago, only to see more grass had been removed, like you also saw.... anyhow I never had my camera with me, but it appears as if, the powers that be are gonna put a flower bed around the rocks....

I am not to sure if this is a good or bad idea at this stage.....

The eye in the sky is always watching!  :wow1: 


The mystery is solved!  Perhaps the removed grass is going to become an extra involuntary donation to the 'give the Alexanders a new lawn' fund!!   image071
