Oh, and bring back hedge layering I say and get rid of those aweful hedge cutting machines which slash through everything.

Beat me to it.
I was going to say the same thing about those hedge machines.
The local verge's are pretty wild, but the dog walkers trample them!!!
Dogs!!
(Don't get me wrong, I have a dog myself, again it's a case of the minority)
and the majority are ditches, and they tend to go muddy when you head down the country lanes, where two cars mount the verge in order to pass one another. It is a shame that these simple little areas could be so much nicer.
