It was disappointing seeing it most days as i couldn't clean it due to being immobile (spelling) for a long time due to knee operations but gave it a good clean last weekend, Spent 5 0r 6 hours on it and me thumb swelled up due to claying so much . Still not happy with it and thinking about getting it painted to freshen it up.

With the cat thing, buy some Lion or Tiger **** and place that around the front garden.

Its meant to work.

You can buy it in B&Q (I think) or online (zoo's also sell it)

I have 2 English Bull Terriers, really friendly but for some reason no cats come near the house

I don't know, never had to buy any.

I think it works along the line that the cat smells it, thinks "Wow, must be a BIG cat in that garden" and just sods off.

Could always buy some cat nip and grow it on his side of the fence, sends cats bonkers, its like crack to some cats
