Rain Pain

Posted by paul mcdermott on July 4, 2012 at 6:33pm

Anybody else out there struggling with the ridiculous amount of rain over the last 6 weeks?Grass growing like wildfire,yet unable to use ride ons because ground so sodden tyre tracks become problem,yet walk behind mowers struggling to cope (etesias and hayters).Mulching out of the question yet were having to remove twice as much waste as this time last year.Contracts and private jobs are asking for shorter cuts due to phenomenal grass growth but no can do.Hedging which isnt due for at least another month is desperate for pruning and as for the bloody weeds.........

OK thats my moan but how can you keep up when contracts stipulate two visits per month yet when we return the sites look as though weve missed a visit?

I know we have all got to make a living but if I see any of you green thumb types on our jobs ...... there could be words!
