De-forestation...

It's getting to that time of year when everything in the garden grows like mad, so this weekend was a good time to get out there and cut everything back so that it doesn't get too out of control.



Beth got down and dirty in the flower beds while I swung from the tree canopies! We ended up with some quite large piles of stuff. Good job our neighbour Dave (AKA Chainsaw Dave!)and Alfie with his Chip the Chainsaw were on had to help make the pieces more manageable.



I also managed to move some of the compost I've been lovingly cultivating to the flower beds as well as getting up on the roof to clear all the gutters of leaves before the storm and fire season really gets up and running...
