Catch you later John, or maybe tomorrow.

I believe the Romans were responsible for bringing in rabbits.

They brought so much, not all of it good, we could be here a while Smile

Could it be some sort of knotweed or the dreaded Laylandii trees (not too sure about the spelling there) ?

I know they brought the Foxglove, but I'm thinking more of a vine, something that takes a lot of getting rid of.

Well it can't be garlic, but they did have a use for blackberry leaves, which I won't go into on here, they are a nuisance so I'll have a go at them.
