@lifeofaboringgardener @THETATTOOGARDENER83 at least we aren’t alone! Could be worse though, I know people who play lawn mowing/pressure washing simulator games after work !
Hawthorn seemed to grow mad last season probs due to wet summer, hard work to get it a nice shape, probs wants laid and kept down , happy new year mate and loving that music 😄
I have been in the workshop all day freezing my nuts off , I might make some videos out in there later , I like to get in there in the winter and potter about. Just sat down to watch your video now, Mate Totally agree, that ivy needs to come off and some new kick boards wouldn't go a miss or maybe even a new fence, at the very least a bit of paint. Hi big Al , Happy New Year Chaps
@StephenCheeseGardenServices Do it mate keep them videos coming mate It has been really cold hasn’t it I’ll see if we can talk her into getting bath ivy off Happy new year mr cheese
Great story's when you watched the tv you imagined it in colour , when the ice was on the inside of the windows we would put coats on the bed to keep us warm and you only had heating in the living room and a gas cooker in the kitchen the ivy ends up that thick it ruins the fence and can pull it down with the weight great team work 😊
@@junejackson7958 I could listen to his story’s all day it’s great he’s good to have about I’m so pleased he’s coming out of retirement for 1 day a week Thanks for watching happy new year
Happy New Year! Great to see big Al and his stories are brilliant! Good bit of work done there. Its absolutely frozen here with snow and ice so the hedge jobs will have to wait for now.
@THETATTOOGARDENER83 yeah mate his stories are brilliant. Its like a winter wonderland up here in Scotland so its into the garage and get the machines overhauled ready for the spring 😀
@@rwpgardenmaintenance1983 yeah mate I need a weekend to do mine or tho the mowers good it’s mainly the br800 and combi attachments that need a service otherwise I’m ready to go
Happy new year to both of you Pete and Big Al. Good to see you at work, I would also remove the ivy, good job done on the beds and the hedge 🙂👍👌 see yah!
One of your best videos son. Very entertaining. Odd thing but as i was listening to big Al.... I found myself talking back at him even though I wasn't there.... But once he went on about the outside loo's , my emotions got the better of me and I went through a box of tissues 😭....it must have been the cold.😂🤣 Dad👍🍺
@THETATTOOGARDENER83 They are saying it will start out as snow on Saturday but quickly turn to rain. The temp over the weekend is going up to 12'. Mental
@ that I can live with I’ve got a few good weeks booked in touch wood and weather permitting I was supposed to have some jetwashing but too frozen today
Happy new year buddy i think it’s hard when we’ve had some time off I think once Ive go through January and sorted my tax bill I’ll be feeling less pressure for awhile For me this year I want to try and save more than last year if that’s possible or tho not easy when everything’s getting more expensive
Hi Pete &Al. As always a brilliant job. You know Pete, I watch some of the American "gardeners ", well it's night and day, they are not gardeners, more like complete idiots, and then I watch yourself & a few others and realise just how professional you are. . Happy new year to you and big Al 🎉
@@simisocks8362 aww thank you I’m sure everyone works hard we all do similar types of jobs It’s alittle different in the USA but they do work hard on their yards I like watching what they do Happy new year to you thanks for the kind words 🎉
when i was a kid we had a black and white tv the sort you could take the back of and fix ,dad was fixing i thought the back looked interesting so i touched it ,shot across the room like usain bolt ⚡️😳
Hi Pete, well done with your work and channel mate. I think chatting with work mates on your vids will defo increase your subscriber nos so nice one👍🏻 I’m based south London but my sister is in slinfold, would be funny to bump into you one day
Happy New Year Pete - Ivy is the bain of my life, it needs to go!! All of my customers have huge Ivy problems so much so its grown into the cob, stonework and up through the roof tiles. Houses are left empty here in France for 10-15 years until all of the beneficiaries agree to sell in the meantime they will not fork out for maintenance
Happy new year yea I hate ivy it’s horrible I think it needs to go before it takes a hold of the clients garden When I last spoke to her she said she liked it but as you said it can do some real damage
@@GardenofKentGardener I love the story’s big Al tells I can’t imagine how hard that would have been middle of the night heading into the garden to use the outside loo People much harder back then Hope your keeping well mate
@ tbf we did have a upstairs toilet as well. Yeah having a few life changing choices. If when your free mate I would like to bend ya ear if possible and learn from some ya wisdom. Will drop you a WA if ok? 👍🏼 love big Al and the stories. Earlier comment about inc them you will get loads of comments n followers as we all love that. Hope family well and other bits getting more easier for you both. 💙
Pete. Happy New Year to you and Big Al. Jobs nicely done! Would have the chainsaw pole attachment helped with the thicker stuff in the hedge? Apologies if you already have one, or have just put something on your wish list! 😊👍
@@THETATTOOGARDENER83 Ahhhh…. I knew something would end up on the wish list for 2025. New chain, or new bar and chain and it’s good to go! Have a rest this weekend, as next week is the big start for all again! 😊👍
Well Pete, flying through stuff in the new year Big als in his prime as always 🤣 How long do ya spend on “ the regular maintenance jobs?” An hour? Two? Again, liked and best of luck in new year 🎉
@@christopherlane4583 Hi Christopher all dependeds on the garden size I’d say 1-2hours sometimes 3-4 hours He’s almost 68 I’m not sure I’ll be as active at his age
Yesterday mate I just serviced my kit after this job Most of these attachments are quite old now Last thing I need to service is the br800 I’m picking up a service kit tomorrow just need to change fuel and air filters spark plug and adjust the valves inside Happy new year Steve
Loved the conversation between you and big Al. I remember a lot of those things when I was younger 🤫🤫technology has come a long way. Gardens look amazing, great job on the hedges. I agree, no ivy !!!
Hi Carol happy new year I hope 2025 brings you good health and happiness Yes big Al is great I equally love his stories of yester years Thanks for the kind words and agree with you ivy does need to go equally will have to see of my customer wants it gone Have a wonderful weekend 🙌🏼🙌🏼🎉
@@studeeming it’s a black fence panel with some slat like panels on the side Whatever the customer wants we’ll do if she likes it we’ll leave it Me personally would love to remove it and clean up the fence
As Big Al mentioned, it will grow through and separate the panels. Also, it will rot the wood by trapping moisture. Removing it is very therapeutic. It's one less thing to do/worry about when you are there.
I’ve been gardening all day to get home and watch more gardening 🤣
Same lol😂😂

That’s it mate but we got through it
I was supposed to be in today but they cancelled last min so that’s money down already this week first red flag

Abit late now lol but yeah a flail would be quicker
I Bet Big Al likes A Bit Of fluff LOL😂😂
😂😂
When was the last time you greased your cutter head
