Oh Joy

As some of you know I am in the process of potting up my garden - all of it - to move to Bedfordshire.

I have just called my local garden centre (can I name them Mods?) to ask if they have large pots I could buy cheaply to help me in this project, as pretty ones will surely get dropped by the removal men!

Nice man at GC said 'come along Sunday morning, I will meet you and sort you out with a collection.'

How lovely is that

nice customer service there Pisk, good to hear for a change, oh & good luck with digging it all up dont envy you that one

[piskieinboots]

n...h & good luck with digging it all up dont envy you that one

Thanks - it'll be fine if this darn frost would clear off so I can make a start

Nice one piskie I have had loads of pots left on the plot we have just been given. If only you lived nearer.

[piskieinboots]

I used to have loads but I promised not to mention it again

[Bigmallly]

Well on this occasion, I think the GC needs a mention.

I agree BM - I'm waiting on the Mods saying they won't slap me if I do cos they are biggish erm, the GC I mean, not the Mods

[Bigmallly]

Well I think there has been companies mentioned on here that have been slated for bad reasons so I think this one deserves a well done award.

[piskieinboots]

Good point BM - the national company that is coming to my rescue is Notcutts

Thank you Notcutts

[Jeanied]

It started out as a good family firm, Piskie - my parents knew some of the family.

[piskieinboots]

really? well done them mind you with that sort of customer service I'm not surprised they are doing well, long may it continue.

...and there isn't a carrot plug plant to be seen anywhere there

That's really nice of them Piskie, they seem pretty ethical & keen on recycling etc.

[Bigmallly]

Nice one........it's really good to see companies going that extra yard to help & no doubt you will recommend them to others.

[Glutton4...]

Just a thought;

Did you consider going to the tip/recycle centre where that daft Snowdrop took your beloved stash of pots? They may have a bin full of 'em that you could have cheaply.

It's long enough ago now, that you're not likely to be buying your old ones back again - that would add insult to injury LOL

Its is great when you find someone nice to help you, good for you
