Three GG Yorkies went to Campbell Court to clear holly (and lots of other stuff) from Mr H's front garden.

Beyond the fence was just all bush and holly. With the help of a couple of the residents, we lopped and clipped and sawed our way through stacks of vegetation, it hadn't been touched for a very long time.

What's that in there? It's a golf trolley!

Yep, we found all sort of bits and bobs in there as we got further in, creating an enormous pile on the grass opposite. Right at the back we even opened up a little alleyway that went down the side of the house, in there were some amazing and bone dry logs which the residents baggsied for their fires.

It took three of us just under an hour to clear the lot!
