Meant to ask sooner............ how is your elbow now? Still suffering or has it cleared up? Fingers crossed it's 100% now.
Thanks for asking Eileen its fine again . I think I might be allergic to hard work Seriously though , It is repetive strain injury and is an occupational nuisance . Over the years I abused my body doing very heavy landscape work and now I paying for it . I try to limit the amount of landscape jobs I do and stick to maintenance . But my first love is making and building designs for impossible gardens . At the moment I trying to write a guide to garden design for absolute beginners , as I think most of the books out do not suit the layman and can be too intimidating . The first chapter is written and is called Keep It Simple . Which is my first principle 8) Bugs
Maybe that is my problem. Design. I go to the store or look in catalogs and see something I like. I buy it and come home and plant it. Helter-skelter, no sense at all. Dooley
You should sell your guide as an ebook Bugs. Considered it? As I said my brother is a garden designer and he teaches evening classes on Garden Design basics. Having read through his lecture notes I agree that keeping it basic is the way to go. Even if you are reading as an advanced gardener.
Thanks guys for the encouragment :idea: Its a good bit away but Im going to give it a serious try . I like the idea of an ebook Frank . Still lots of research to do . Anyone like to tell me how they feel about existing design books . What you would like to see ! 8) Bugs
