The lovely Saturday E Mail

I finished planting a contemporary garden a week last Friday. I designed it, Dale Pellatt built it.It's always good to hear that the clients are happy with the thought and skills taken to produce 'THE' garden that they dreamed of. This is the 'makes it all worth while' e mail that I received today."Hi Kerrie,Firstly, to say sorry that we haven't been in touch sooner. We both have horrid colds and I have had a couple of really busy weeks at work. However we just wanted to say how wonderful the garden is, we adore it and this afternoon have our garden party, thankfully the sun is shining -it couldn't be better.You are welcome to come round any time to take photos. Since the garden has been finished we have spent as much time out there as possible, even sitting out in the evening with blankets! We're really pleased with the lighting also, it makes it so much fun to be out there even in the dark!Thanks again and let's do keep in touch!Thank you again, it is just how hoped it would be!"

    Well done Kerrie. Doesn't it make it all worthwhile?
  • It does!

    I never forget that, long after my part in the garden is finished, the garden lives on, growing and subtlety changing, but it always has to aspire to the original thought.
  • Congrats! Lovely email
  • Well done Kerrie - doesn't that make our job the best in the world? Congratulations!!!

  • Thanks Debs, it is the BEST job in the world (even though I was surveying a difficult site today in the rain and wind! When plotting my measurements on paper found that I had missed crucial laser gun action, so will have to go back MILES to the site next week to get them)

    Seriously thinking of sending a 'lovely Saturday e mail' to the plumber tomorrow, he did a great job at my home this week, at short notice. Not sure plumbers ever get lovely emails!!

    You may be interested I am going to be a beta tester for Uphotomeasure.
    Uphotomeasure allows the designer to use some powerful software that converts photgraphs to measurements.

    I have only received the confirmation email today but you might want to check the software out in advance.

    http://www.uphotomeasure.com/

    It could save some precious time.

    I have covered the software a while back when it was called Iphotomeasure but it has gone through a revamp.

  • Thanks Phil, will check it out. Time is precious, but getting less so.....

Dave Colton replied to David Benson's discussion liquid moss killer
"I haven't use liquid iron but do use soluble iron sulphate, takes a wee bit more mixing as it's a powder but I find it goes further and is cheaper than the liquid, I get mine from agrigem."

Groundleader replied to Peter sellers's discussion Retirement advice
"This is definitely NOT my field of expertise, but I'd guess what most buyers might be interested in, could include:
1)  What's the realistic market value of your "hard" assets (vehicles, machinery, tools, materials etc).
2)  For the "goodwill" part…"

Sam Bainbridge replied to Dougie's discussion Looking for a new roller machine
"Buy an old Honda roller mower, the new ones break in 18 months and cost you £500 that is then repeated every 12 months.
Either a honda or others the same which actually came out of the same factory with different names, sharp, lawnflite, kaaz, all…"
