If you can't beat them...

Stonecrop.

I had arranged to go to Kanyl's to help him trim his box hedge.  I had two of the main requirements, a petrol hedge trimmer and a long extending ladder.   No the hedge isn't that tall!  The idea is you use the ladder to make a level line by putting it on its side and then using it as a cutting guide.  So we managed to make the ladder stretch far enough but then the join was too short to keep level.  So with a bit of ingenuity and building bricks we supported it and got a level.

After we finished I wandered about looking for a blip and settled on this stone crop.  Kanyl didn't know the species or variety.  So I can't tell you anything about it.  As a size guide the gap between the sandstone blocks was about 1cm  (1/2 inch).
