Removing The Bindweed From Paths

With the recent rain and sunny weather the bindweed has taken over a large area of plot 1A as I have been concentrating in attacking it and keeping it back on plot 1. 

As it was not too hot and sunny and there was a bit of cloud cover I took the Ryobi trimmer to the paths and pulled up as much bindweed as possible, isolating the beds so I can go back and clear the weeds in each bed and get them ready for, if not this year at least for next year.

Plastic planting tray placed on the top of raised bed 15 to prevent the fox from keep digging the compost out. Temporary measure until I can get hoops and netting back on the bed and sow some carrots in the bed.

The Crimson range of tomatoes are growing but I'm yet to see anything turning red.
