          I feel honoured that you think so but am scared I wouldn't know enough and they'd have to let me take the Mr and Jake .........it'd be a major upheaval to find that I'm rubbish .....

            You should have more confidence in yourself- you're not rubbish at all- go on....at least look into it- I know you must be tempted

                  Hmmm, let me think about this a second. Mr and Mrs Bins hate France, they told me often. Bins hates gardening (Lottie trip to Tatten Park today I believe)? The bag of Bins also knows nothing about looking after trees or lotties as I found out when she gave me tons and tons of knowledgeable info whilst walking round my garden.

                        Aw shucks guys you're all way too kind....but am thinking they need someone who's worked somewhere like Tatton or any other proper place and not gleaned their gardening practice from the back garden and the lottie . Also most of what I know i've learnt from here anyway

                          OOooo, sounds wonderful Zaz. Wish I had a bit more knowledge.
                          For anyone who's hesitating...don't!! I am loving my job at the nursery, although I never would have thought I could get a job like that. (mind you my back wouldn't agree with that statement yet)
                          All you can do is apply, if they like you enough you'll get in. And there are always lots of good books to fill any knowledge gaps.
                          Them what don't try never gets...go on you CAN do it.

                              How much does it cost to cart 20+ Chooks, 2 Geese, I Dog, 1 Horse and 1 Cat to the south of France?
                              You can get the livestock over there quite cheaply through livestock transport companies. It's just very difficult getting them tuition to speak, gobble, woof and neigh in FRENCH........

                              Go for it bins......

                                That's exactly how I feel. I'd be fine if I could be permanently strapped to my poota, for ease of reference!
