    I am now retired, but I have been a landscape
    gardener for the past 35 years of my life and
    enjoyed every minute of it. I still work doing
    gardening five mornings a week. Apart from being a hobby, I am getting paid for it. I also have
    a large greenhouse in which to indulge myself.
    I hope to participate with people in the future,
    Happy Gardening! [​IMG]

    Hi, there, Conitonite!
    This message might get a bit lost down here - I'll see if the Mods will move it into the new member's introduction area, so more people will see it.

    Sounds like you have a lot of experience, and will have loads of advice to offer! :D

    Did you work with a firm, or in a big garden? Like you, I get paid for my hobby - I have a garden maintenance business which keeps me out of trouble! :D
