It's a touch agricultural, and my wife's a bit concerned about what neighbours may be about to say (I'm more confident in the soothing effects of beer bribery!)

Wow! I'm impressed, it looks fantastic. :-)
In my experience, a few bottles of
HB always helps to make people less combative - hopefully your neighbors appreciate real ale.

Thanks - that is the entire veg patch gone so I'm now going to have to clear turf for another one- a job I recall hating last time around, but it's definitely worth it!

There are two people who overlook it properly, one is already a regular recipient so will be on my side, the other will just have to be a work in progress!
