Well done fella, good job there. How long did you get to do the length?

I've heard of hedge laying being judged 12 months after the work so the judge can see how much cheating went on on the day.

Congrats.:thumbup:

It took me most of the day to do ten yards needed for the competion. The hedges are judges 12 months later, but it is for the best re-growth.

These hedges are going to look awful for the next couple of years due to the lack of material in the hedge ( the hedge had been laid downhil along time ago, and there were some large tree stumps which left some big gaps). These gaps needed to be packed with material already cut.

So will we see another pic in 2011 ?
