I used to be a fan if Duran Duran, but when Simon le Bon came to stay at the hotel where I worked, he was just another customer to me. We had lots of celebrities there. But would be great to do have him on, and a collaboration with other gardeners is great, too. Love Acres Lawn Care!
I’m like that with most celebrities I treat people as normal people Of course I got alittle excited when John said his son was Simon But honestly they prefer it if we treat them as normal people Alex is awesome
@@michaelderbyshire4130 yayyy great to see you on here buddy hope works been ok since you’ve been back from Cyprus Weathers been rubbish down south mate rain thunderstorms etc What is give to go and sit in our spot on the roof again ☀️🌴🎵 sunshine and tunes Thanks care buddy speak soon
Nathan and Alex both have great channels and I can imagine both would be a right laugh working with on a daily basis. Keep up the good work buddy it’s amazing how quickly it pays off.
@@Karl-p6h thank you Karl I agree both legends really nice chaps would love a beer with them someday Thank you for watching buddy have a great rest of the week mate
Alex is a great guy, going to be fun with the two of you working together. Great job on the lavender bed, and hopefully meeting Duran Duran, how cool will that be 🙌🙌🙌 Have a great week !!!!
@@carolgadles7045 Hi Carol yeah I’m buzzing to meet Alex that will be so awesome I’ve spent all day doing lavender and got some better videos coming out this week just finished editing ones a short the other a main video but only 5 mins long I’ll get them up this week Thanks for watching
@@mcpheesgardeningservices hello mate hope life’s treating you well must be warming up abit for you guys now Our weather starting to change for winter 😂 It will be great to meet him
@@THETATTOOGARDENER83 ahhh just lazy 20 deg days sunshine beer and wine good wine of course lol yep season ramping up soon mate the old boy is ready lol actually my priority is my 100 video big mile stone for my little channel !
Nice job on the lavender. Not too shabby when your gloves and trimmers smell like lavender. Not so true when trimming society garlic. My gloves and trimmers smell like loads of garlic. Nice in a stir fry but not in the cab of my truck. LOL Enjoy your week!
Sometimes I’m alittle stressed just because I have the school run morning and afternoon I start by dropping my stepson at breakfast club. 7:30am I then drive the opposite way to drop my partner at work then drive another 20 mins the other way for Charlie’s childminders then rush back for the van I start about 9am then have to get done by 4:30pm in order to get home get changed in the car then do the pick ups between 5-6pm It’s that which restricts what I can do but won’t be forever it’s just until my partner can drive lol We’ll keep doing our very best appreciate the kind words tho I think reducing my work load has helped now big al retired
That’s well mad would be well cool to see a few famous faces on the channel hopefully you’ll get to bump into them Great video can’t wait to see part 2 plus all the other jobs you do for John if it’s like you said on the phone the other day then the back garden will be a huge transformation Good video mate
@@RobWalker-r9c I know right Simon and example on the channel would be mad Part 2 and more will be good we’ve got loads to do in the back the views won’t believe it until I’ve shown them Nice to chat the other day buddy Thanks for watching

@@rosspark3522 I know mate it’s dark shortly after 7:30pm now winters well on its way I’m the same I’ve got an 80’s playlist on Spotify too your right gets me through the day

@@THETATTOOGARDENER83 they've got a lot of good ones, view to a kill from James Bond is favourite.

Hi Pete, You have probably had a better day than at Groundsfest,it p*ssed it down. I did'nt even stick around,to meet Nathan and get some beer vouchers😅 He'll be moaning he drunk to much again!!😂 Take care.

Lavender garden tidy , perfection
There’s lots of this coming up but even better 💪🏼
Thanks for checking in really appreciate it
I noticed you used shears to do the lavender, are they better for those type of jobs than a hedge trimmer?
@@richardkilbey8815 it’s more quickness really
You can use whatever you need really I guess it all depends on what time you have for the job
Lovely job 👏
Thanks Anthony I’m half way there but will get it finished next week we’ve got loads to do at this property
Doing the old-fashioned way, big thumbs up , top marks, Pete
Have a good one 👍

Lavender looks nice but stinks as bad as patchouli does IMHO. RIP it out and throw it at passers-by. 😉🤣
I weirdly don’t mind the smell to much lol lavender is one of the few plants that doesn’t affect my heyfever
