    I took the pooch for a walk around a local park yesterday and was struck by the complete lack of management this year. The whole area is overrun by weeds, including vast swathes of thistles and nettles. Local authority cut backs I suppose. It's a shame, as it's a nice park.



    Is it just me, or has anybody else noticed that nettles and thistles seem to be growing to huge sizes this year? Even in my garden there have been nettles growing to a metre or more tall in next to no time.

    Take a strimmer with you when you go - or a machete.
