Fending off encrouchment

Lovely day today with clear blue sky in the afternoon with the siwfts flying really high. Emptied one of the trays of my wormery. Also cut back a vine, bindweed and bramble coming over from my neighbour's. Dorothy has never been very good at weeding the edges of her garden and I have often to pull up her bindweed (though it goes in a bin so I get the benefit of some of her garden fertily), ann cut down seedling ash trees. She is also surprised if she cuts something down if it grows again! She is now in ther late 70s and slowing down. She is letting the bottom half of the garden go and concentrating on the bit near the house. A friend suggested I ask if I could use it. In theory, yes, but I am not sure I would have the time to tend extra space. I certainy haven't got the time to do the clearing that is needed. The loganberries are nearly over. I won't be going out to pick them to have with my breakfast. I will just treat myself to the few I can find when I am out in the garden. Hope to tidy the shed tomorrow evening. It feels a bit strange to be expecting another dry day!
