Well the bramble murdering is almost over. Here are some pics that I have just taken this morning. To show you the difference.

 Yes Crash it did lol. Now you can see why we left the roots in. The ground is so wet we have to have some thing to stop us from slipping to far. lol

Thanks Andy C  :)

Fantastic to see joji, you deserve the beer after that lot :P!
I feel extra wimpy cos I uses roundup :-[ and you really are showing me how it's done!
If you keep it up at this rate you'll be winning trophies next year for best kept plot ;)
Keep the photos coming, your plot story is really inspiring ;D

Thanks Supersprout :)

It is a good way of taking your aggression out on some thing then being satified that you have put your excess anger into some thing possitive and then look at what you have done in a few hours , step back thinking boy I must have been really angry about some thing today  :o  lol and not remembering what it was. ;D

Lol Derek

There is no need to feel Inferior. But we women beat you men hands down when it comes to doing a job correctly * joke *

I bet your plot won't be as bad as this. Me and OH did all this by hand with  a couple of garden rakes and a pair of secertares each and one pair of loppers. It is so satifying to see it. The pics don't really do it justice. :)
