having read this i will take heed.. i have it coming form both neighbours.. one side a wild jungle and the fence is coming down covered in ivy.. which is great for butterflies bu not good for us and we have propped it up many times.. now my hedge is onlything holding it up.

and the other side just stuck down membrane and bark..but not very well.. and it comes throu over myside.. along with brambles and groudn elder.. i spend more time sorting that out than on my own garden itself..

kleebatt.. taht is good idea.. will remember to do that to the roots when i dig them up..

oh and to add to that.. all material and batteries and ink cartridges and shoes anythign like that can not go in our black bag.. we have to trudge to recycling centre to dispose of ourselves..

thou  most of our materials go to the air ambulance box in shop car park.. as do old shoes etc.. as much as possible on those we can.. closer than the recycle centre.
