Creeping buttercup
How on earth do I get these out of the lawn? I don't usually use chemicals but guess I'll have to. I physically would not be able to dig them out. Any suggestions

Yes, that'll do the job. A sturdy old table fork is nearly as good as long as you don't mind getting down on your knees.
Failing that a dab of glyphosate gel.
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
I hate buttercups! They're evil and you will not ever erradicate them! They've a plot to take over all UK land!
In league with ground elder I suspect
I have a weed extractor so can try that . Thanks Pansyface. Dovefromabove, unfortunately I can't kneel - 2 knee and a hip replacement. I love gardening but am not too agile anymore. Frustrating. I doubt if I will clear it completely but don't want to leave it to spread right across the lawn.
