Which weeds?

Which weeds are you battling against in your garden or on your allotment?

In my garden I have a huge problem with buttercups. I have dug up wheelbarrow loads today - I wouldnt mind if they were in the lawn, but the are all over the flowerbeds.

I also have one flower bed with a bindweed problem.

The worst thing is the dreaded japansese knot weed. Whe we moved in there were two patches and for the past three years we have blitzed them but today I noticed three shoots.
DH has painted them wth weedkiller (I try and be organic, but with JK we bring out the chemicals) and we are now on knotweed-watch.
The ony consolation I have is that the new shoots were very small and weedy, so hopefully we are beating the bloody stuff.
