Today I began my reclamation of the wilderness that has become the garden!
As Malcolm had already done a lot of cutting back at the weekend the garden bin was pretty full and not due to be emptied until next week. I reckoned that I could squeeze in a few weeds though and, as it was a gloriously sunny morning, I set too weeding our driveway.
As you can see it is a long overdue job......
So how does this fit into my challenge? Well Malcolm's solution would be to zap it all with expensive weedkiller,wait hope for it all to go brown and then let me get down on my hands and knees to pull all the dead weeds out.
An hour in the peaceful sunshine, chatting to neighbours passing by, no money spent - result!
Any tips for gardening on the cheap?
