A young guy (well, younger than me) came round to give me a quote for some work in my backyard. (NOT a euphemism by the way).
Anyway, we got talking about psoriasis and how I was struggling to keep up with my container garden. Turns out his mum has psoriasis too plus arthritis. He created a seating area for her so she could soak up some vitamin D and made accessible beds/containers for her as she loves cottages gardens & herb growing.
He really knew his stuff about what would work best for me and my space, took a sketch and is compiling me a planting plan & list of recommended flowers for the more shady areas.
I already have all the gear ( hanging baskets/brackets/pots/tools etc.) so he's coming back next Thursday to get it all done.
£50!!!
I was expecting to be quoted double that.
I told him about this little forum if his mum wanted to check it out ( so best behaviour folks).
Great news it's certainly a very good price it sounds a fun project
Don't worry about his mum we will look after her if and when she arrives we are always kind at first
Glad things are good with you and the garden should give you something else to do apart from reading
