Winter Clearout II

Now that Christmas is over, work has resumed in the garden and the Head Gardener is keen to carry on clearing the bank along to the 'Woodland' bed.  So yesterday and today we were pulling up dead weeds, lopping saplings and then chain-sawing small trees. 

Although we had worked all day yesterday, (and we must be getting old as we crawled into bed last night just after 9 o'clock) we thought that a lot of work remained, but we were pleased when the bank was cleared by lunchtime.

However we had a huge pile of trimmings for burning ...

...which were duly burnt this afternoon.

HG is very happy!
