The ivy league

 It was a day to do some gardening - namely weeding.

This is the year of the bindweed. What an annoying plant it is. Unless you get out every piece of root it will simply re-grow. 

Brambles are a real nuisance too. One part of the garden had a monster bramble about eight metres long. It had grown rapidly and was a beggar to remove. Its thorns were vicious.

Finally English ivy. What a nuisance this is. Its ability to cling and root itself in cracks is what makes it so difficult to get at. It makes everything so dull and is so smothering.
