Klappentext
How on earth do you put stripes on a lawn?
The big move from Australia to England wasn't exactly going to plan, when I decided instead to start a gardening business in the UK.
I had no knowledge or experience of gardening, and I couldn't tell a weed from a wisteria, but thought to myself - 'How hard can it be?'
So I moved to Sevenoaks in Kent; rented a flat, bought some equipment and promptly chopped down the wrong tree.
I worked with some crazy clients, met the odd angry neighbour, and soon learned that stinging nettles and shorts are not a good mix.
Well it seemed like a good idea at the time...
