We had a gardener in yesterday to do a bit of tidying up before my birthday party. I keep up with the watering and the tiny bit of lawn-mowing but draw the line at trimming the bushes and anything more adventurous. Marilyn found a young fellow who has the franchise for Jim's Mowing in the area. As she said, we know he will have insurance and we have someone we can complain to if anything goes wrong.
In fact, he was terrific and the garden is looking 100%.
It's a big expense setting yourself up for running a gardening business. He had a big 4-wheel drive and monstrous trailer with every conceivable bit of gardening equipment. I suppose he never knows what to expect so he has to carry everything with him, just in case. He's coming back in a couple of days to take away an old barbecue we no longer use and some garden chairs which have been rusting in the corner since we moved in. Apparently, it's all part of the service.
