Wow. This is what greeted me in my wee vege patch after a fortnight away on leave. My veges are thriving - all but one broccoli plant in amongst them all tho, so I thought to give them a bloody good soak before I tackled the "invaders" today. I wonder what they are?

Only thing I can think of is the mulch I threw over the patch last winter made up of oak leaves from the park across the road.......? Dig them back in or put to compost? What say you Discerners?

How's this for some typical Kiwi heroics in a time of need?
Builder Cheyenne Salter was working on a roof in Christchurch's Port Hills when he spotted flames heading towards a house on Monday.
He raced to the property and joined a group of other tradies who used buckets and a sprinkler to tackle the “tornadoes of fire” heading towards them.
At one point, Salter was in a pool filling buckets when he had to fully submerge to escape the scalding heat.
