What did you do today ?

So lush and green wonderful garden Paul a real pleasure.

 

I bought the locks and fitted them myself, the dead locks were an absolute bitc* to do, the lock barrel goes in at a slant and the measurements need to be spot on. the holes are done with a cone drill, Never the less well worth it.

bought both from:

"So lush and green wonderful garden Paul a real pleasure"


Yeah its a fantastic place, it looks onto a fishing lake in the valley bottom and pasture land behind the house. running up the banks were the drive is cut in its seeded with wildflower mix.

I love working in it and am good freinds with the customer, always get well feed when I work there.

 

Was drooling over that garden too! Do you know what the grassy torn-umbrella plant is, think it is in the foreground of your second pic too?

Had the worst week yet at work. Timetable changes at secondary school - mine was changed 3 times on Monday morning before I even got started. A lot of the kids we work with find change unbearable, and it has been really stressful! Looking forward to getting into the garden tomorrow - haven't done much through the week, just wanted to come home and cry! (But now it's Friday! )

 

Ive always just called it umbrella plant lol !

 

Poor Jarbax, never mind we all have them weeks at sometime.:eek: Lets hope we have a lovely weekend so we can get out there in the garden and put it all behind us. 02

 

Another of my nice jobs, 6 Ares of comunal gardens and parking:

 

Been a good day here nice and sunny got 3 new customers and saw someone i worked with as part of my industry experiance at collage mind i think it got my customer woundering wot was going on when he parked his tractor outside her house :rolleyes:

looks nice place that pro :thumb: ive not really got many big jobs round here just a hell of alot of small ones bigest is probaly the volvo bus and truck garage

 

Yeah, its a good one.

Over the years I ve also done an awfull lot of private landscapeing jobs in the residents individual gardens aswell. I also pressure wash the courtyards bianually.

Only problem is the weedkilling of the gravel areas is relentless also about 8 tons of leaves to clear each autumn, the bonus is that i can drive my van or the pickup and trailer around so manual shifting of waste is kept to a minimum.

 

8 Tons :eek: do you do all that on your own ? theres times i wish i had someone to help me to be honest might be able to work less and make more then lol

 

Yeah, I use a big husky blower to corall the leaves then fork it into builders bulk bags, drag them into the trailer and drive around to the woods to empty them. Always glad when its done!

Id love to employ and curently turn down a lot of work as i cant do it, however come december and january theres only enough work for myself.

 

same here id like to have a bit of time off though :rolleyes:dont finish until 8ish most nights still got to make hay while the sun shines i suppose :D

 

I hid from the heat!

 

Lol Daisees I know where you are coming from lovely day but far too hot for me, I had to wait until well into the afternoon just to sit in the shade of an umbrella!:eek: Hel.xxx.
