I know the thistles are darn annoying, but these photographs are truly stunning! I’m absolutely LOVING your new photos with your super duper camera! I know what I’m saving up for now… Thanks for sharing, I absolutely loved looking at these photographs!

You defeated the army of thistles. Tackling a couple of acres of furze will be no problem, will it? I know here the National Trust do controlled burns to keep the furze down. Good look anyway.

Hi Ruta, burning is always a dangerous thing around here. The grasses are too dry at the moment and being next door to a forestry block makes it a higher risk. We have a fire permit but are pretty cautious about what we do. Also, having built the house I don’t want to burn it down, especially as our neighbours almost did that about a year ago!
