My work progress and diary

Thank you

Somewhat depressing, then no!

Saturday has been the same old, as it is for most of us I guess, I reckon its the quickest day of the weekend and thats why they go so quick, before you know it Monday morning is here and its back to grind.
 
Unless you work for yourself of course, I have done the rat race, or thats what it was called when I used to travel up the line.   You get up, work, come home, sleep, and all over again.
 
But with working for yourself, you dont get sick pay, you dont get paid holidays, and if you dont work for one day you still get paid.
 
Not I would my life any different, I dont think I could work for anyone else now, unless I was giving the orders. 
 
Sometimes when its pouring down, or worse snowing, I could do with an office job, but when the summer comes, for me, there is nothing like it.  Fresh air, some suntan and you can have a break whenever you like.  That will do for me!!
 
Hope to hear from you all soon, the year has started well, and for those who have been following my blog in the past I have a new gazebo, a pop up one, I should get out more I know, but this is great, unless its really bad weather it allows me to carry. 
 
See you all soon!!

Last post of the day

Last blog post of the day, just want to say to everyone that's visited my site and my facebook page over the past 7 days, and I know there are many of you according to the activity section, just want to say a big thank you.

There are many reasons only known to you why you keep coming back time after time and you know who you are.

Thank you once again, and do pass the posts and links to the site onto your friends.



See you all soon!!

Success

Going to see another scheme today in Chatham, have five quotes to do so that's my Sunday sorted, hard work but worth it in the end.  Quoting is fine because its all on the laptop, so not too taxing. 

This blog is very successful, thanks to everyone that views it, its has now had over 21000 comments and over 35000 views, with 1200 followers, thank you to everyone.  

I will keep it going and look at for special offers on the website from time to time.   I am so proud.  

The week ahead is going to be a good one, in an earlier blog, I said the weather looks wet so Gazebo ready and waiting, lets hope the weather people have got it wrong.

See you all soon!!  And thank you once again.    

Games

The paralympic games, the cycling is amazing, well done to all taking part, absolutely brilliant.

See you all soon!!

Bike

Saturday today, got some time to myself today, thinking about the future and all that, very deep thoughts.Thinking of family at the moment and what on earth is happening to some.   Has anyone got a magic wand they do not want any more.

If any one is reading this and has or knows any one that has a girls bike 19 inch frame for sale then let me know, must be within 10 miles of medway if possible but will consider further.

See you all soon!! 


Mobile visits

I have just looked at the site activity for my mobile device site, and its good reading its telling me that they maybe more ipads and iphones in Gillingham than Chatham, Gillingham gave me 29 visits and chatham 9. Come on Chatham catch up.  Still Rochester was only 1 so you are not doing too bad.

see you all soon !!!

2011/2012

Well The holiday is almost upon us, as if we did not know, it has, thanks to all of you, been a great year and signs are that 2012 will be a year where we all reflect on the past years and look forward to getting back into shape including the country. 
 
All of us at MB have been working hard to give everyone the garden they deserve, and with the feedback we received I would say we have done just that.
 
Our commitment to garden landscaping has not and will not deminish and we look forward to hearing from you in 2012.
 
May I take this point to wish you all a very merry Christmas and a happy new year.
 
Thank you for your continued support.
 
See you all soon!!!

Bespoke

Many people have wondered what MB stands for, well it is Medway Bespoke, we build and lay your garden to any idea, any sketch or measurements you have.  Working wioth you all the way to build your family garden.
 
So there you have it, MB Medway Bespoke remember the name.
 
See you all soon!!

12 months

Well thats another weekend nearly over, got to finish the top deck tomorrow, should do.  Getting ready to view the past 12 months trading, this week, I would like to trade up next year, that is to say try to acheive the impossible.  Haha!! Now how can i do that, any ideas.
 
I expect material prices will go up a little next year, probably in January or maybe March time, the increase this year was about 4 per cent, so I would say about the same, our labour rates have not increased however for 2 years, looking ahead I will try and keep it the same personally.
 
If any increases have to be forced then I would say about 4 to 5 per cent not much when you think that some other companies are on.  
 
We give a great service that in my mind, and also in a number of my old customers mind as well, a service that is second to none.  And all for an affordable price.
 
See you all soon!!

Wow

Wow thank you for all the interest in my site 111,457 visits to date.  The figure is not hits it is actual visits.  I thank everyone.
 
Its great to know that we are reaching more and more people everyday.  I try to keep the information as good as I can so keep coming back, special offers, great deals, photos of work carried out, and tips on products to help you acheive the garden you have always wanted.
 
We have served Medway and the surrounding areas, in 2012 we will celebrate our 17th succesful year in business. 
 
A big thank you to all those customers that have made us one of the leading landscapers in the Medway Towns.
 
See you all soon!!
