Not exactly a big job but do you think its ok ?

[michaelthegardener]

i know these jobs arnt exactly much but got to start somewhere ! when i started my business i couldnt even drive so im not doing to bad

[mickg]

when did you start your business Michael ?

[michaelthegardener]

2004 mostly just garden maintanance and some fenceing up till now though

[lutonlagerlout]

you have a personalised plate so things must be ok
I havent got the foggiest on softscaping so I cant comment on the planters etc,but the fence looks nice and straight
if you do any work just refer to the main site for guidance and if you get stuck ask away
we all started somewhere and i have to admit my first patio some 24 years ago was a fail
had to cut 5 inches off the bottom of the gate
all the best michael

[Dave_L]

I love private plates that actually mean something.

Big gas company has many plates ending ....GAS, looks the dogs.

Always wanted something ....TAR, but all seems taken.

private plates not really my cuppa tea,unless they spell an exact name or phrase
i think michael's fits that bill
