Hi all,

I think that I've missed the boat
regards sowing a new lawn from seed and to
be honest, I would prefer to lay turf.... but.... being currently
unemployed
means that I don't have the funds to buy turf.


Grass must be greening up nicely at this time of year.

According to your website you've already spent over £3,000 on materials
for the garden and you have a list of further items you would like other
people to donate, each item specified with its cost, furniture, lights and
parasol etc; the "donations" request list amounts to close to a further
£2000. Making a total of £4,871.04.

The good news is that being unemployed, you have plenty of time to rake
stones and prepare your very tiny lawn, and hand water it after seeding.
So go forth, and cast your seed upon the ground.

This just doesn't look right to me. This site was not designed by an
amateur. I for one would like to know the relationship between "Andy"
and "Creative Design". If, as" Andy" says in another post, he's only
got a few quid in donations, he's either an unemployed web designer
(and if he's designed this site he shouldn't be unemployed) or he's
got enough cash to pay someone to design the site or he's got some
really good friends. It's gotta be one of three.

Sorry but I think this is a commercial con trick.


Hi Jake,

Sorry to disappoint, but it's no trick.

I taught myself how to build websites, although the html Nazis will tell you
that my code is all wrong lol, and I really could do with a job right now
(Southampton UK).

Creative Design was a name that I came up with back in the days of the Amiga
and it's just the default settings I have at www.freeparking.co.uk where I
buy my domain names.

6 years ago I left my job as a car salesman to setup an online business
building high end PCs, but due to circumstances, run out of time and money,
you can take a look at www.microbuild.com

Glad you think my site looks professional, at least I've picked up some
skills along the way.

Let me know if you want to know anything else, I've nothing to hide.


Andy
