Getting ready for the party

We have a camping weekend/BBQ at the smallholding in a fortnights time, and have been desperately trying to get the waist high grass, ragwort and weeds sorted. 

There have been a few challenges with the strimmer that our friend Sue had borrowed for us, namely that every time Dan touches or even looks at it, it breaks.

However, Sue had managed to get a fair amount done, and I did three hours today(before the strimmer broke, again!), so now we have an almost ready field. Well, you can see your feet at least!
