Diary

  • September 19th 63 @ [C] & 1 @ [C]
  • September 1st 3 @ [C] :: The [B] area covers at least half the distance to [C]
  • August 3rd Cleared the field side (South East) of the drain 15 @ [C] and 73 @ [C] on the Trekensa side (North West)
  • August 2nd 37 @ [C] Mostly large and some I just took the flowering tops off. Otherwise Area [C] on the fieldd side of the drain is clear, the Trekensa side is a mess and of course even if I clear the ELF land it is adjacent the mass in Trekensa.
  • August 2nd 133 @ [C] Got across the drain into the filed proper. 133 again :)
  • August 2nd 133 @ [C] Again a small area mostly under the oak tree on the drain side. I have however managed to cross the drain by the oak tree so shall focus now on those plants in the field proper.
  • August 1st 123 @ [C] Sadly this is a small are Trekensa site of the drain and between a nice oak tree and the drain
  • July 29th The far side of the drain at [C] is quite wide and infested, so if possible I will clear that before going into the field proper. There are many thousands and would need the brushcutter to do it timely but I doubt my shoulder will be up to that nay time soon and soon is what is required. ☹
  • July 28th Whilst clearing the adjacent area in Area 2 I saw plants in what is now area [C] As yet I've no idea of the size of this new patch.
  • July 24th 13 @ [A] 1 on the riverside of the bund and 12 @ [B]
