Which way does it face and what do YOU want of the garden and/or the

Veg?

I must say - as much as Charlie and K are right in letting a year pass
by and see how the garden develops, what comes out the ground, which
way the sun faces and what does the OP feels and see from each windows
and especially from the conservatory etc. you have asked all the
questions that a good garden designer would ) The client brief from
the course I'm doing has made me do this exercise a couple of weeks
ago, though the questions ran in the 100s, you however asked the most
important ones. You must have had a missed vocation there Mike ;o)


Have done consultancy work :-)) Does it show?

We had new neighbours in quite a few years back. Young couple with one boy.
Very much into sport. Gardeners? NO! (I think they were something quite high
in Babmington) They knew from the start what they wanted of their garden, so
everything came out, we had some lovely plants and shrubs from them,
rotovated from top to bottom and turfed. Football Goal posts and a net put
up and that was it. Another boy was born and in time he was out there
kicking a ball as well. They knew what they wanted and it is the same
everywhere. Do you walk into a car showrooms and buy the first car the
salesman offers you without him asking any questions or telling him some
form of guideline?.......... No.

I have been dealing with the public for 60 years since my parents bought a
hotel and later I had my own businesses :-)))

Mike
