As Blue Monday is fast approaching, I thought it would be a good idea to give a small reminder to our community here on Landscape Juice to remember to tell people about your worries and if you’re having negative thoughts. Talking about emotions…
Britmow weren’t aware how much of an impact attending a trade show would have on their future endeavours. In the run up to their 50th anniversary, they were exploring ideas of how to celebrate. It’s only when they met Kate Cooney from…
“Gardening programmes tend to be very ‘traditional’ white middle-class in their attitude towards gardening”, Julia Sargeant said in an interview after she won gold at Chelsea Flower Show in 2016. She was the first black gardener to design…

Evening chaps!I'm after some recommendations for safety goggles, I need some for just domestic strimming, I used to use safe eyes mesh goggles, which where fantastic, but can't seem to find them anywhere now. since my last pair got destroyed I've…
"Thanks Peter, I used blue oil, think it was from screwfix, hope this is OK, been using the blower a bit lately.......... WOW! what a machine, knocks the socks off the br600, like you said it would 🤣 so glad I went for this one! "
"Going to disagree here, we used to buy used with cash as at the time could not afford new. But numerous very expensive repairs along with the downtime changed our ethos to only buying new and only keeping for the 3yr warranty period. It has worked…"
"I may be on my own here but I've always avoided paying for things on finance. If you can afford to pay the finance you can afford to save and buy it outright plus you don't have any interest to pay so it makes them far cheaper.

"Thanks, I'll check it out. My vauxhall brava pick up was an Isuzu with vauxhall badges on and my vivaro is a renault with vauxhall badges on! "
"Be careful here. The Movano up until 2021 is a Renault Master with Vauxhall engine, Stellantis amalgamated Fiat. Citroen ,Vauxhall amd Peugeot in 2021 and the Fiat Ducato, Vauxhall Movano, Citroen Relay and Peugeot Boxer all started to use the same…"
We cannot believe the vast price differences for the same thing ! EG Bacho S240 cheapest £59 inc vat. Dearest £140 ex vat, Teng tt1281 £72 inc vat dearest £120 plus vat, Draper £50 inc vat, dearest £110 plus vat. These all off the net, what is going…

"Thanks, movano 21 reg £10k plus vat at a main dealer. I really like my vivaro but sometimes it's just not quite big enough."
"After 12 vans definately right. But always wise to use an accountant as everyones circumstances are different
"

"I think that is true... but Id check with an Accountant or HMRC"
"Martin, we have bought many new vans on finance. We usually put the vat down plus part ex value as the deposit. Disregarding the finance for the time being, the total cost of van can be written off either in one lump or spread over a few years, our…"
"I am no expert on tax matters but from what I believe if the van is used 100% for business use then yes all £180 can be put down . Say 50% of the time its for personal use then £90 can be claimed for . What sort of van are you looking at ?"
Hi all, hope you have all had a good Christmas and new year. Now thoughts turn towards the coming season. I have seen a good used van advertised at a main dealer. Assuming my old van would cover the deposit and left the remainder on finance. If the…
