gardener required

Recommended Posts

Hello, we live in a house on Ivydale Road, Nunhead and are starting some works to the ground floor of our house this October. As a result, the garden will be largely ruined and will need re-doing from scratch next summer (2016).


In the meantime however, we would like the garden (which has not been tended to since we moved in November) generally sprucing up for this summer. We do not want to do alot given the works in October but want it to be nice to enjoy for relaxing and bbqs etc this summer. I am guessing it is no more than a full day (perhaps 1.5 days') work, but best if you look.


In particular, it would involve the following:


1. tending to some overgrown flowerbeds;

2. perhaps repairing some fencing;

3. any other ideas you have for this summer only, at a relatively cheap cost; and

4. spot gluing a large rectangular off-cut of artificial grass I have sourced on top of some crazy paving in between the flower beds (I have spoken with the manufacturer and they have said this is the best temporary fix).


If interested, please call or text on 07958 310072. We would like the work doing as soon as possible, but would like a quote first (not just an hourly rate). You can come and look this weekend if interested.


thanks

Ben

    • I hear that Landells Road has had a spate of parcels being taken,
    • In the 1960s my husband went to a private day school, Although he was a bright child having won a couple of scholarships to other private schools, his father chose this particular one. He went from 11 - 14 years and left as unhappy with the set up which was based on ethnicity. All boys with both parents English were placed in the A stream regardless of academic ability, Boys with an Irish background were placed in B stream. All others were C streamed - this included boys with a Black or Asian  background, mixed race or mixed European background. His schooldays came to an end when he wished to learn Latin and he was told that no boy in C stream could participate in this subject. His father (not English) was very upset at this and withdrew him from the school and sent him  to a country boarding school.  The experiences he had with his schooling culminated in a breakdown of his mental health and several months in Maudsley. He had low self esteem and it took several decades for him to understand that it was the school system and not his ability which had failed him
    • Actually, one of the reasons Sylvester Road was closed was that the space available as more and more parcels were part of the mix was insufficient (and the facilities were primitive). And that was before Covid when parcel delivery numbers soared. Sylvester Road as it existed then would not have coped, probably (and the move to Peckham, when Covid arrived, showed that that wasn't sufficient either!).
    • Aria came round a couple of weeks ago to take a look at a radiator that wasn't working properly. He did a fabulous job, and was very generous with his time and his expertise. We will absolutely look to him again for any plumbing needs.
