Trimming my bush

When my sister was here she was haranguing me about trimming the privet at the base of my driveway. It had gotten so overgrown that when we would take out the car the branches would come inside the open windows as we backed out onto the street! I'm sure the side of the car was getting some scratches but that car is so old (it's a 2000) that you wouldn't even notice a few more blemishes to the finish.
So this week I decided to get a workout and get the job done. All I had was a little hand hedge clipper but I got out a metal file and sharpened the blades and it worked really well. After much hacking and sweating the job was done and now the car backs out of the driveway without a hitch. :)
