When I moved into my new place the garden was an absolute tip, it was like a massive jungle.

Well, we went at it and managed to chop down the first half of the jungle and made the garden really nice with furniture and a barbecue. Now we want to make use of the other half, so it's time to take it on.

It's colder now so it'll be easier to kill the weeds, pull them out and get rid of them. I've sharpened the garden shears, the huge branches of the bigger weeds dulled the blades so much last time.

And I'm wrapping up wearing at least two layers of clothes I don't care about, last time the nasty sharp nettley weeds ripped a big slash in the leg of my trousers, and stung me all at the same time! I was not best pleased!

So Mr Garden, I'm coming for you!
