Any landscapers/grounds maintenance contractors on MC?
Cal:
Thanks again for the advice, both of you.
I do like the idea of a ride on mower - have used one before when helping out a mate and it was indeed great fun! Shame that that job has gone by the wayside - used the owners mower and petrol so just had to turn up and mow!
Secure storage is a tricky one - I had a trailer and more kit previously as was starting to accumulate stuff with an idea of starting on the maintenance this year but someone obviously saw me with the trailer and decided they liked it. Depsite me thinking the garage was secure enough I came home one day to find the door had been ripped off and my trailer and kit pinched so would have to put some more thought in to that. Mind you, if I was running the business properly then I would get everything covered by insurance. Luckily my kit was covered under the house contents insurance but the trailer wasn't.

We then had to lay about 7 meters of log edging and 4 tonnes of gravel equating to a further 8 tonnes of gravel

That's an awful lot of digging (to put it politely!)
Let us all know how you get on in the new job.

Yes it was, but hard work doesn't hurt anyone! As for the new job - may have to deffer for 6 months. :evil: See "Guess how I did it" and LSP and Boggert would never do this......"
Cal:
Oh no! Hope it's not as bad as it first seems and that you can get on with the new job - fingers crossed.
