Week-end jobs

Yesterday we cut the last of the hedges, the one that borders the public footpath to the woods. It's good to know it's done for another year.The path, which is used regularly by dog walkers, is quite muddy.....now mud I don't mind, but dog mess I do!!

The hedge bank is showing the first signs of spring, snowdrops and violets are out and the daffodils are in bud. It's a shame the weather doesn't feel as spring like.

I also dug up the thistles in the paddock, any holes I filled with soil from the molehills, so two jobs tackled in one, well for the time being at least. It won't be long before both the thistles and moles are back.
