Two of my neighboughs were away for the weekend so I took the opportunity to 'prune' their tall hedges against my boundaries - well as far up as I could get on my 6.7M ladder!
I had a theraputic morning removing more, and more, of the offending objects until the wife took my petrol can away
And a cr*p afternoon clearing up the debris - I got rid of 2' height of the 'smaller' Leylandii hedge, and 3' from the big one of mature holly, with huge prickles on the leaves! I saw both of the neighboughs last evening, and they didn't mention the hedges, so I think I got away with it! I might ask if I can take a bit more off for them later in the year
At least I'll be away caving next weekend
Mendip's beware!
