What grass is this?
This is probly the 4th one of these I've done, sorry, but I have so many different types of grass. This one is in my front lawn. Im hoping its not a weed cause it is the dominant grass. Im just north of Brisbane.

T30s pro burning smell after emptying dust bin.
We have had our T30s for around 4 months and use it every 2nd day. We have 2 dogs so it does get a good workout.
Last week I heard the robot say "return to empty the dust bin" then about 2 minutes later there was a strong burning smell comming from the base. we turned it off and took it outside. The bag wasn't full but we replaced it anyway, we cleaned the filters in both robot and base and checked there wasn't a blockage in the dust empty pipe/tube part of the base.
The next day we put it all back together and with the base plugged in outside, we ran the robot until it needed to empty. We took the robot to the base and it emptied but the burning smell came back.
Has anyone had this problem and know how to fix it? Or is it just cooked and I should try and send it back?

This be Couch?
Long story short. In late January I noticed I had some grass grow through from the neighbours into my dirt patch. Thought it was couch so I bought some couch seed to fill in the rest of my dirt patch. But the grass I grew looks a bit different to what's creeping under the fence.
Pic 1 is from me transplanting a runner from the grass creeping under the fence
Pic 2 is from the seed I bought.
Pic 3 is what spread from what came under the fence.
The neighbours grass spread almost 2 meters and is thick and pretty while the grass I grew in the same time frame is patchy and looks different to me.
Ideally I want the neighbours grass to fill in the whole thing. So I'm just trying to figure out what is what so when it warms up again I can get it going.

If I had a will, I wouldn't be here to vent to strangers on the internet right now.
I have had enough of it all. I need to get my affairs in order just incase.

The cable for this outlet is run through the aluminium post. The sleeper behind is not attached to the post, it just sits up against it so there is a gap between the back of the outlet and the wood so it is already somewhat exposed. I understand these outlets are designed for outdoor use but I just want to be sure that it would be OK if exposed to the elements at the back. It already gets rained on a little bit but it will get alot more once the wood is removed.

I have a infestation of Mullumbimby Couch in my front lawn. I spot sprayed David Greys and it seemed to work but it killed a bit of my lawn. Then it started popping up everywhere. I sacrificed more lawn and did 2 more treatments 7 days apart but it isn't dying at all. It's almost like it has been invigorated by the poison. Are there any products that actually kill it and not the lawn? My lawn is a mix of kikuyu, Couch and carpet grass.

I have this sleeper wall that was put in by the previous owner. He has used wooden stakes to hold it and they are rotting, one has already fallen off. My plan is to replace the stakes with galvanised ones and also remove the top row of sleepers. Each sleeper is 200mm high. I have found a product that I am confident will hold the bottom sleepers (picture 2) but how would I go about securing the second row of sleepers to the bottom row?
