I enjoyed a good laugh with MsT this afternoon. She’s super enthusiastic about sorting out the ivy and other jobs around her garden. The plant in question has probably been in situ for over 25years and has a phenomenal root stock.

MsT actually got to work during the week and cleared the remaining half of the living, rambling wall which has been growing on her adjoining neighbour’s fence for a quarter of a century. I think she enjoyed clearing it but does still need some help and it would be unsafe for her to attempt to dig this out herself.

Today’s task? Attempt to dig up the roots! MsT is an absolute gem and will need some trusty GoodGymers for the next few weeks to help clear the rest of the ivy root and flatten the earth in front of the fence.
