Free garden design offer
Hi neighbours,
I'm a local landscaper & designer. I would like to offer my design services to someone wanting to re-do their garden space, free of cost.
I am a qualified and experienced horticulturalist and designer wanting to add more designs to my portfolio.
The only catch..the styles I'm wanting to specialise in and promote are the beautiful cottage garden or native gardens. Although I am a big believer in supporting our natural environment also, so a cottage design could also include some natives.
And the other catch..I would install the design at my standard rate.
Please reach out if this sounds of interest.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?
