Also no idea with the first one, but I'll add Zaluzianskya to the list of possibles for the second.
Great find there JWK. I can't believe I've just spent so long looking what my own soil's like!:)
Thanks anyway Pete and Hydrogen. I think next year I'll just do it with the strimmer every so often so it doesn't get so thick and woody.
