"After his retirement, Lansbury committed full-time to his organic fertilizer business Grass Gains. He credits his interest in lawns to a COVID lockdown period when he had to mow the lawn himself after a gardener did a disappointing job. The Grass Gains products are being used at various football pitches across Europe, including Genk, AS Monaco and Fulham."

Imagine the business he would have started if he had to work on a radiator.

Well he did his best to bleed us dry.
