I have had that problem but with my hedge, the farmer decided to cut it with his tractor. Nothing like a mad english woman chasing a tractor round a field in her dressing gown and wellies.
Total lack of tender love, frost at the wrong time, wind before any fruit set set and chickens got a taste for blueberries and raspberries, but looked today and found a few figs. As for the veg I've no idea.
Bear, my problems are cows, horses and birds. Next weekend it's the cherry festival in the village, great my cherries will be ready, nope have eaten them, I haven't even had one this year.
I think that the news has gone out in this village amongst the cats, cows and horses. She won't mind if we go to her place she'll make sure we are sorted.
RE: Anyone ever heard
That will make a change
