80 quid for a gardener?Im going for a career change.My next door neighbour does his every bloody week coz he has no hobbies and doesnt even drive.Everyone walks past my front garden "tutting".he stands there like percy bloody thrower with his chest puffed out.That gives me an idea.If I leave it long enough he might pop round and do it for me.Bit of a perfectionist the old fella is.

its a pub mate and there is a fair amount of work involved so £80 for a days labour is good value if you ask me.

also surely your neighbours hobby is gardening
