Pumkins and badgers


Hello again,

It's that time of year again! Yes, it's almost Halloween (which, incidentally, is also my birthday) so it must be Pumpkin time.

Last weekend, we ie. me plus daughters, Daisy (8) and Dolly (6), have carved five Pumpkins. The girls made two each and I made one (in the close up).

They are now gathered around Brian (my stuffed badger) on the doorstep of the house, supposedly warding off evil spirits that might wander past and try and gain access to the house.

Incidentally, the carving of vegetables at this time of year was originally intended to welcome friendly spirits and the souls of deceased loved ones.

I hoping to get the prize for most demonic Pumpkin in Suburbia if there ever was such a prize.

What do you think of my effort? Comments below please.

Until next time...

100% Guarantee??


Hello again,

Just thought I'd remind you that, earlier this year Waterwell introduced the most outrageous guarantee for an irrigation system. We recognised then that the economy was (and still is) very tight and most people have sensibly got a close eye on their budgets and their costs. We also realised that people need to be sure that when they make an investment in their property, they get value for money and the support of a well run company.

With that in mind, we wanted to make an offer that our potential clients couldn't refuse. Because we are certain of our ability to install an irrigation system better that any other company and because we are certain that they will be delighted with it and the effect that it has on their gardens, we were delighted to make the following offer...

The Waterwell, 100%, Money Back Guarantee

If, once an irrigation system has been installed, the client is unhappy with it in any way then they should call us within 30 days. Then, if we can cannot solve the issue we will come and remove it and refund 100% of the money - no quibbles, no hassles, no embarrassment - this is a genuine, total-confidence, no-risk guarantee.

Why did we do this? Well, because we have led the garden irrigation and lighting market for 20 years and we have over 600 clients with maintenance contracts, we are pretty certain that we are going to make our customers happy; their gardens will thrive, their new plants will get off to the best start possible and their lawns will be lush and green. We know how many of our customers are happy with our service and we want everyone else to be too.

Until next time...

Graffiti II

Hello again,

I know I have shown graffiti before but I think it is an art form that is under-rated; thought provoking, humourous, witty and with the potential to improve our environment.

This example is from the 6emeia project in Sao Paulo, Brazil by the artists Anderson Augusto and Leonardo Delafuente.

Until next time...

Hidden man

Hello again,

A quick homage to Lui Bolin and his amazing ability to blend in with his background. Apparently he only uses paint and patience, no trickery. If that's the case then hats off to him.

Until later...

PS. He's in front of the front tyre

Waterwell - What we do, blog #3


Hello again,

As promised, here is part three of my mini-series about what we do for our customers at Waterwell.

Today, I will tell you something about the garden irrigation service that we provide.

Firstly, we have been designing, installing and maintaining garden irrigation systems in London and the South of England for over twenty years. In that time we have developed a very keen sense of what is required, both by our customers and by the gardens we irrigate. We irrigate all gardens; from a single window box to a country estate and we can irrigate trees, lawns, borders and containers.

What are some of the benefits I hear you ask?

Your new plants, trees and lawns will establish quickly, minimising the loss of expensive plants.

You will achieve fantastic growth in the first season (30% better) giving you an instantly mature garden.

You will be able to sit back and enjoy your garden without being a slave to the watering.

You can go away on holiday, safe in the knowledge that your garden will be in better condition than when you left.

You can grow a greater range of plants if you have control over the watering, giving you a bigger choice of garden style.

It really is that good you know; installation (even in an existing garden) is quick and clean and the benefits are instant plus having an irrigation system (and a lush garden) adds value to your home.

Waterwell employs skilled and qualified engineers who are able to provide you with the best advice and a system to suit you, your garden and your budget. Then, if you choose to, you can sign up to the annual maintenance agreement which will keep your system in tip-top condition, year after year.

Until next time...
