Absolutely. It's been a delight spraying weeds through there the last couple of weeks. There is an area in the woodland there that is similar to the south-east corner of the Offset across the fence. Starting last season, I'm having a go at documenting the diversity, distribution and abundance of species in there. Maybe it can join the offset one day .....
