All right: you're wasting your time.

but its peeing me off AS IT INVADES MY VEGIES every year
how do i stop it

Emigrate. Try the high Arctic, deserts, or similar.

Sound counsel. But while you're saving up for the fare, does it come
in from outside, or is it confined to your own garden? If it's
home-grown, you have a chance of controlling it, and just conceivably
even knocking it out.

Stop digging near the source plants: it propagates readily from tiny
bits of root. Buy at least two pairs of cheap woolly gloves in the
market, and some surgical gloves at the chemist's. Then mix up some
glyphosate, don brand-new rubber surgical gloves on both hands and a
woolly one on your working hand. Soak the woolly glove in glyphosate,
and gently stroke every single bindweed stalk from the ground up with
it, wetting every leaf and taking care not to let the stalk touch the
green parts of any plant you like (this is, of course, impossible).
Do this again every six weeks or so, burning the gloves every time
(you have put the house on the market, haven't you?). When you get
the money, get out quickly so the bindweed won't follow you.

But it won't hurt your vegetables much if all you do is haul out the
offending plant material every so often: not a desirable situation,
but you'll get your crops.
