Steve 00, D G Services


I would recommend Steve highly. He provided an immediate quote which was reasonable and which he did not exceed. He was pleasant and flexible and extremely hard working and completed the work on schedule. The work in our garden included clearing, levelling and laying turf, fixing paving and painting a wall as well as planting and laying bark. I am certainly going to ask him to continue to maintain our garden.

Hi - I have a recommendation for another Steve (07962588326). He has been looking after my elderly Mother's garden - starting with a big clear up and now just pops round when he has a spare hour to weed, tidy up and cut her some flowers fom the garden. He's very much self-motivated so I can just leave him to do what is necessary and don't even have to book him in any more .. he just pops by when he's in the area. He's a hardworking and sensitive soul.
I highly recommend Steve. He removed two trees for me. Did a great job, cleaned and tidy up. He was very helpful and tied back a bush for me. Steve consulted me through out the job to make sure he was removing the right branches/trees. He is a very pleasant, polite guy. He is coming back to decorate my bathroom. I would definitely use him again.

One more recommendation for Steve from DG Services. He was prompt, polite and came in with a very reasonable quote. We had our decking jetwashed and restained, patio flagstones relaid and repointed and some unneccessary concrete "rope" edging from our front path removed, making good the resulting mess. A reliable, and conscientious guy that we would use again.

I wanted to endorse the recommendations for Steve of DG Services. Steve did an excellent job clearing a very overgrown garden at a house I'm selling. The property is empty but this was not a problem. Steve went and took a look, gave me an estimate and then collected keys from the estate agents, carried out the work and returned the keys. Steve kept me informed all the time (which was a relief), so I was very relaxed about the whole thing. The garden was transformed, all the debris was cleared and I am very pleased with the work. I found Steve to be very reliable and sensible, so that was refreshing. The price was very reasonable too.

Another recommendation for Steve here, he has completed two fantastic gardening jobs for us in the last six months and recently a paint job also. I have been very pleased with the high quality work, Steve is very professional and friendly and also very kind to my children. Steve is the first person I call when I have a job that needs doing.

Steve did an amazing job on our garden, he was quick and efficient and cleared our lawn of tough weeds and old lawn in no time at all. He was also really lovely with our 4-year old son, who kept him company for a lot of the time while he was working :) I highly recommend him!

I just wanted to add to this list, as Steve from DG Services once again made our garden look amazing. He found excellent quality turf for our garden and laid it all in a matter of hours after weeding/levelling the ground. He's an exceptionally hard worker and he does a brilliant job. I thoroughly recommend him!

Another recommendation from Steve at DG Services ? he is professional and helpful and came out multiple times to the site as we kept changing the brief. He also gave us the most competitive quotes, quickly and made numerous amends to quotes as the brief changed. Would definitely recommend.

    • That is also a Young's pub, like The Cherry Tree. However fantastic the menu looks, you might want to ask exactly who will cook the food on the day, and how. Also, if  there is Christmas pudding on the menu, you might want to ask how that will be cooked, and whether it will look and/or taste anything like the Christmas puddings you have had in the past.
    • This reminds me of a situation a few years ago when a mate's Dad was coming down and fancied Franklin's for Christmas Day. He'd been there once, in September, and loved it. Obviously, they're far too tuned in to do it, so having looked around, £100 per head was pretty standard for fairly average pubs around here. That is ridiculous. I'd go with Penguin's idea; one of the best Christmas Day lunches I've ever had was at the Lahore Kebab House in Whitechapel. And it was BYO. After a couple of Guinness outside Franklin's, we decided £100 for four people was the absolute maximum, but it had to be done in the style of Franklin's and sourced within walking distance of The Gowlett. All the supermarkets knock themselves out on veg as a loss leader - particularly anything festive - and the Afghani lads on Rye Lane are brilliant for more esoteric stuff and spices, so it really doesn't need to be pricey. Here's what we came up with. It was considerably less than £100 for four. Bread & Butter (Lidl & Lurpak on offer at Iceland) Mersea Oysters (Sopers) Parsnip & Potato Soup ( I think they were both less than 20 pence a kilo at Morrisons) Smoked mackerel, Jerseys, watercress & radish (Sopers) Rolled turkey breast joint (£7.95 from Iceland) Roast Duck (two for £12 at Lidl) Mash  Carrots, star anise, butter emulsion. Stir-fried Brussels, bacon, chestnuts and Worcestershire sauce.(Lidl) Clementine and limoncello granita (all from Lidl) Stollen (Lidl) Stichelton, Cornish Cruncher, Stinking Bishop. (Marks & Sparks) There was a couple of lessons to learn: Don't freeze mash. It breaks down the cellular structure and ends up more like a French pomme purée. I renamed it 'Pomme Mikael Silvestre' after my favourite French centre-half cum left back and got away with it, but if you're not amongst football fans you may not be so lucky. Tasted great, looked like shit. Don't take the clementine granita out of the freezer too early, particularly if you've overdone it on the limoncello. It melts quickly and someone will suggest snorting it. The sugar really sticks your nostrils together on Boxing Day. Speaking of 'lost' Christmases past, John Lewis have hijacked Alison Limerick's 'Where Love Lives' for their new advert. Bastards. But not a bad ad.   Beansprout, I have a massive steel pot I bought from a Nigerian place on Choumert Road many years ago. It could do with a work out. I'm quite prepared to make a huge, spicy parsnip soup for anyone who fancies it and a few carols.  
    • Nothing to do with the topic of this thread, but I have to say, I think it is quite untrue that people don't make human contact in cities. Just locally, there are street parties, road WhatsApp groups, one street I know near here hires a coach and everyone in the street goes to the seaside every year! There are lots of neighbourhood groups on Facebook, where people look out for each other and help each other. In my experience people chat to strangers on public transport, in shops, waiting in queues etc. To the best of my knowledge the forum does not need donations to keep it going. It contains paid ads, which hopefully helps Joe,  the very excellent admin,  to keep it up and running. And as for a house being broken into, that could happen anywhere. I knew a village in Devon where a whole row of houses was burgled one night in the eighties. Sorry to continue the off topic conversation when the poor OP was just trying to find out who was open for lunch on Christmas Day!
    • We went to Chern Thai for lunch on Saturday, as we have done quite often, and they were closed, with no sign of life. The sign in the window still says Saturday 12-3, and there was no indication that they would be closed. Can anybody shed any light? We went to Chilli and Garlic on Zenoria Street instead. Their falafel salad bowl is amazing (and amazing value!) but we had been looking forward to a Pad Thai and a pint of Singha! ETA: I am reviving this thread because it is/was  specifically about Chern Thai's opening times!
