Finished!

It has taken me six hours over the past weekends to trim this baby!..But I know it will be worth every thorn snag when she blossoms

Like this!

 

Nice one Pal, looks really good for the trim and last years blooms :D

 

A nice bit of work, Pal! :D And as you say, well worth the effort when you get that effect

 

Pal did you use that pic for the comp. last year or similar,I know I used one as a screesaver for ages......

The Woodstock sign........I hadn't seen that before......Priceless.

 

Actually Marley none this year thanks to my new leather gloves and overalls! :D
One very similar roders. I am flattered you liked it enough to use on your PC.
The signs are original finger boards broken off by Council chain flail hedge cutters!
I had no choice but to liberate them :D

 

hi Pal, so thats the shed where you keep all kinds of old stuff, or gadgets of bygone days. well hidden in the summer with trailing flowers.

 

Sure is Fancy...
Would you like a peep? :D

 

Looks as interesting on the outside as it undoubtedly does on the inside Pal :D

Well done on the rose pruning too

 

Just a quick look mind!

 

Ooh Id love to have a rummage in there :D

 

Love the snowdrops, and boy of boy that rose is spectacular. I don't envy you that job of pruning, but no doubt twill be worth it.

 

I agree with Fran both the snowdrops and rose are superb, well done Pal

 

It looks as rampant as my Paul's himalayan musk - let me know where you bought your gloves from!

We neglected to prune ours for several years and it was a monster of a job, now we try to do a little each year and that seems to work.

 

Gloves from Glazing supplies. Leather and Gauntlet style...They stop glass slashes and stabs so thorns are no problem and the wrists are safe too!...
