I have a new project 
I've been clearing some bushes and undergrowth where Spud escapes into next door. The ground drops down a bank to the old chicken run where I grew mangetout this year. I'd already cleared the area around the run but, beyond that is a patch that has been taken over by Vinca/periwinkle. About 20 years ago, I planted fruit bushes there and they're still there, in amongst the Vinca. Anyway, my project is to make a "path" down the bank, around the back of the run, through the vinca, coming out further down the garden. Basically, running alongside the fence on the south side of the garden, a fence that I haven't seen for many years because there's at least 6 feet of vinca in the way.
Its very satisfying, working my way through the undergrowth, a foot at a time, like being in the Amazon jungle without the parrots.
