Ooh that's interesting about the wire on top - a lot easier than adding extra chicken wire. 
Obvious point but: worth using in some slightly over-tall posts if you think you might need to do this later
I can always knock some in - quite easy now the rest of it is up.
I'll see how we go, if things are getting nibbled then up goes the extra wire!
Lotty holder since Aug 09... I've FINALLY finished clearing it! On with the p.lanting  ....

Where i am rabbits are vermin and so its legal to trap and kill them. The looney part of this is if you catch one alive, its then illegal to let it go  (because its illegal to release vermin into the wild).

And on a Useless Information note, in mediaeval times there was a rabbit warren on the fens round Woodhall Spa that allegedly covered   more than 4 square miles.

funny you should say that its illegal to release rabbits onto the wild, i was just watching animal 24/7 an that tiggywinkles rescue centre cured three rabbits with mixxy and let them go! straight into a farmers field!  :ohmy:

Still, they make a great stew!  :)

So does that mean if they reclassify slugs as vermin I'm not allowed to chuck them over the neighbour's hedge?
