We did the same, no bindweed but mares tail galore. Even through the double layer of weed membrane and 15cm of gravel I built the shed on...

Yeah Mare's Tail just survives under the tarp and pokes up where it can. It might even make the roots push deeper (total speculation). It is easy to pick off the surface stuff when you remove the tarp though.

every few weeks I'm going to lift the tarp, remove anything I can see and hopefully continually weaken it all

@edmundro, I doubt covering it over winter does a whole lot as it's dormant then anyway isnt it?
