He could just trim his bush. I’d be mortified to have myself in the paper because of the state of my garden. Just make a path through the jungle. It’s not hard.

Has he trimmed the bush though? Probably can’t see the house anymore now it’s 14 years later.

I now carry a pair of secateurs & do a bit of pruning while I’m out & about
Crikey, that`s decent. One on my walk is wildly overgrown with lots of brambles. A detached bungalow that is almost swamped with greenery. Think I`ll be taking seccys from now on.

Cue the obligatory sad face for the photo. :chuckle

I wonder if he's still alive now, 66 when the photo was taken, he would be 80 now.

It's probably illegal to cut someone's brambles etc. whilst on their property without their permission. Can't do a favour now without getting into trouble if the homeowner has a fragile state of mind and would sue rather than be grateful! :whistle
