MINI INTERVIEWS<br />

The garden design and landscaping industry is one with a real<br />

community spirit, it has people at its heart and thrives on<br />

relationships. So that you can get to know a bit more about<br />

some of the people who make up this community, we collared<br />

some of them for a quick-fire question round!<br />

If you weren’t a garden designer,<br />

what would you be doing?<br />

I would probably be a foreman.<br />

What is at the top of your bucket<br />

list and have you done it yet?<br />

Winning a Chelsea Gold medal<br />

was pretty high and riding off<br />

road End to End (John O’Groats<br />

to Lands End) was up there, but<br />

I would like to create a garden<br />

If you weren’t a garden designer,<br />

what would you be doing?<br />

I have thought and thought about<br />

this and do you know, I wouldn’t<br />

want to be doing anything else but<br />

designing gardens!<br />

What is at the top of your bucket<br />

list and have you done it yet?<br />

It’s got to be a trip to New Zealand<br />

but throw in a sky dive as well and<br />

then I’m happy!<br />

What would be your top choice<br />

on Desert Island Discs?<br />

This is the hardest question of all.<br />

I made a top 5 - 4 of which were<br />

David Bowie tracks - so I’m going<br />

to say Walking After You by the<br />

Foo Fighters.<br />

What piece of advice would you<br />

give your 18 year old self?<br />

Stress is a waste of time & energy.<br />

What piece of advice would you<br />

If you weren’t a landscaper, what<br />

give your 18 year old self?<br />

It would definitely have to be<br />

dream happen. With hard work,<br />

love and passion for what you<br />

want, you can achieve anything.<br />
