Garden levelling, rubble removal and a trench dug
Sion and his two boys worked tirelessly for close to all the hours of daylight here in Fife to bring my back garden to the 'blank slate' I needed for my redesign -- despite wretched weather! After his initial visit, during which time I mentioned some other things that were on my 'B and C lists', Sion suggested that I simply have him and his boys over for a whole day and they could tackle all of my projects at once. Three good strong chaps at my beck and call? What keen gardener girl wouldn't want that, especially one with a little less strength and energy than she used to have. My additions included cutting wood for my new greenhouse staging projects, replanting the bed I had them dig out, assorted landscaping tasks like topping trees and battling some ivy at the front of the house. No task was too much trouble, even making an extra trip to wherever garden rubble goes. At the end of the day Sion measured up the areas which need retaining walls and steps in order that he had the details for when I make up my mind what to do next. He suggested a few ideas but at no point was his pitch a hard sell. I can see him and his team returning soon, hopefully not in the rain, sleet and snow we had on December 22. Best. Christmas. Present. Ever!
