I spent a while today crawling under the fruit bushes
(red/white/blackcurrants and gooseberries) and dragging out the weeds,
which I swear weren't there a week ago. Mostly sticky weed (my arms are
all mottled red now, yuk) and a bit of bindweed. Not had much
stickyweed before, I think it may be due to Daniel spreading the seeds
last year. :-/

What kind of mulch would be effective?

Grass cuttings.

Wood chips here.

There is a _huge_ amount of sticky weed every where this year, I've never
seen so much. Not sure why that might be.

How hum, back to the lawn mower.
