Garden Design London: A week in the life of a London Based Garden Design and Build Company: Week 36 2011
  • Katrina enjoyed a great trip to visit a client near Oslo, Norway.  Two days on eager creativity ensued as the best design options were explored for this sloping site that frequently finds itself under a metre of snow!
  • Matt is nearing completition of the Earth Designs garden design and build in Willesden Green.  Weather has slowed the pace at time but the team are almost ready to paint the beds and add finishing touches.
  • We are exploring the possibility of visiting the International Garden Festival at Chaumont Sur Loire, now in its final weeks.
  • We have been sent some professional preview shots of garden design and build in Sevenoaks, Kent.  The garden looks fantastic in both day and night shots.
  • Earth Designs garden design and build in Kennington London has been featured on gardenbeet.com.  The garden features a contemporary open pergola structure, funky design pieces such as the stag's head and a water blade.
  • Katrina is preparing for teaching next week on her course ’3D Google Sketchup and 2D Layout Drawing Course’

"I did wonder that but it's not getting 12v at all on the trigger wire, so I don't think it's being "asked" to energise "

"Can't find the MHHP manual online, but the other Etesia mowers have an engine bypass lever, to allow the mower to be pushed etc. If you operated this lever prior to winter storage, you'll need to put it back to normal position. "
