Twas a sunny evening and myself and Roz 'ran' to help Mrs D with her bramble invasion. The back of her garden was slowly getting taken over and it was quite the thorny issue. Mrs D cares for her son who has a learning disability so was unable to clear the patch herself which is where we came in. We chose our tools and went at the growth like a pair of Dothraki soldiers carving through Kings Landing or mad hairdressers trying to find a find a treasure map tattooed on the scalp of a client with a giant cranium covered in a decade of hair growth. The weather made this a amazing so we talked and chopped for over an hour before we had to shoot. Sadly we could not complete whole patch, but as you can see in the pictures we did make a big difference and a second visit should get the job done.

Amazing work, Gary and Roz! I've never seen so many brambles but looks like you made quite a dent!
