Great tip Monkeynut, a pair of gardening .as an engagement present for Rachel.
Power wash the deck, you can get stain/ varnish which repels the slime/moss etc.If not get Rachel to slip on it and claim on the insurance for loss of earnings. Rake the areas of dead grass off, get a bit of top soil, level it out, rake, plant some quick seeding grass seed, keep watered. Buy Rachel a lawn mower as a wedding present get her to cut the grass wheen it thickens up. Invoice is in the post.
Come in she said "I'll give you shelter from the storm "
