Hedge Happenings

There's always plenty to do in the garden, not least keeping control of the hedges. One of our main problems being the width of the hedge between us and the field next door.  

While Martin regularly thins out the foliage on our side - yes, it looks bad but it does grow back! - the field-side grows out of our control.

It's been getting wider and wider for a while now, to the point that even our long-handled hedge trimming toys can't quite cope.  

Time therefore to venture into the field itself and hack back - it's a bit of a long-term project, but Martin is making good progress, and  the end is in sight.

And at least on the field-side - we can mercifully leave the debris in situ - cutting out what would otherwise involve a lot of trips to the tip!
