I am not sure if we are speaking about the same individual but I had a very similar experience with London Landscape!! What a dreadful man. What a dreadful service. I found him rude, obnoxious and only interested in how much money I wanted to spend. I know very little about gardening and was reluctant to share a top budget if what I actually wanted could be done for half of it. But he didn't want to discuss 'options', his main aim was to get me to commit upfront to the absolute maximum I could afford to spend. When I refused to do that, he told me he didn't need the job and that was that!!

Was this man called Billy from London Landscaping (not Landscape) company?

He has no understanding of customer service and actually shouted at me on the phone for 10 minutes, simply because I ha an opinion about some flower pots. He just wanted to get as much money out of me as possible. He told me in no uncertain terms that he was the expert and had been hired because of that. He left me in tears. Following that he was rude and obnoxious for the rest of the job.



I cannot fault the work and his team are joy to deal with but anyone looking for a pleasant experience please avoid this company and this man.

    • Do you mean put out things like live mealworms for the parents to feed to the young? Or that the parents will eat the food you put out and therefore can save "wild" live food for the young rather than eating it themselves? On another matter, several weeks ago I moved my bird feeders to another part of my (very small) garden because the area they were in was totally scratched up by pigeons, and I lost several plants I had had for decades and was very fond of 😭 It is now just bare earth with no plants,  and I've got to start again. And block up a fox hole in one corner. I suspect the foxes are tunnelling beneath the garden, as there are several holes. I hope the ground doesn't suddenly collapse beneath me! I cleaned everything and put in fresh seed, but so far all that has visited the new area (that I have actually seen)  is one rather fat sparrow. And a cat. Sitting hopefully beneath the feeders 🤬 No goldfinches (I have a niger seed feeder and have seen the occasional goldfinch in the garden) and no tits, though I've heard both blue tits and great tits nearby. Plus the flock of sparrows who used to come and seem to have deserted the garden. Hopefully they will find the feeders. I've cut back some of the greenery, which doesn't help, as they have less shelter. 
    • So when will we find out? Is it going to be a big reveal on some specified day? If not, why can't you tell us now?! (I'm presuming you mean the new boss of Franklins. It would be too much to hope for that the Palmerston had a miraculous return to one of its better past incarnations. Never mind the food, they could bring back the lovely quirky painted column things of over twenty (?) years ago, and remove the hideous "art" that has sadly been installed. I feel really sorry for the staff, because it can't be just my partner and I who rarely go there any more. I suppose the only hope is that it does so badly that it changes hands again and that the new hands have better taste. Sorry, all off topic.)
    • I would hope that is extremely unlikely. If people accidentally vote for someone, that's their own fault, isn't it?
