Literally a spot! Ms. M's garden is severely overgrown and she requested us to tackle the rogue blackberry bushes by the fence. We chose the spot for maximum impact - where it was starting to go over to the neighbour's side.

We took off as much of the prickly branches as we could but it'll certainly take repeat visits just to get it under control.

It certainly was a gorgeous sunny morning to be out in the garden. Chatty Ms. M and her 3 little dogs were happy* with the company as well.

*debatable. The oldest one was certainly wary but didn't want to be left out of new human sighting!
