We have been given a new customer and week by week are discovering her preferences. At our first meeting she told us that she led a very busy life and that she wanted a tranquil garden. Clues to this, we discerned, were the oriental ornaments placed at focal points.
We aim to please. In the last two weeks we have primed two new fence sections and painted the other existing fences and trellis work. To reach the fences and trellis we overcame overhanging ivy and various thorn-bearing and decorative shrubs and cut them back where appropriate. We raked the lawn several times to tidy up our bits and bobs, remove moss and leave a good impression. We took a small border fork to the beds we stood amongst to paint the fence and lightly titivated the surface of the mulched soil to erase our boot prints. We made all instances of our interventions invisible save for filling the brown bin. All is tranquillity again.
