Been having some work done in the garden today. Trimming back masses of unruly and overgrown ivy amongst other things.
Late afternoon I was using a little LPG powered spot weeder to tidy up the odds and sods popping up around the edge of the patio at the bottom of the garden. Bit of snap crackle pop and a load of dry leaves that were under the overgrowth in the ivy took fire. Flames to the top of the fence and above my head. Dry wood within the ivy caught as well as leaves.
Garden hose out and it was extinguished in pretty quick order.
But it makes you think....
