Nice one mate, the more skills you have the better hey, you boy (and girls as the case may be) can proabably clear up a question thats been on my mind for a while now. What do gardeners do in the winter when nothing grows? trim the evergreens?

can you make any claims on the social due to not being able to work due to the weather

Gardening is seasonal really and they know winters will be quiet from the onset.

like pressure washing,  summer mainly.

the gardener who goes to a house over the road seems to come all year round. but im puzzled to what he does when nothing grows? maybe like i said he trims evergreens and prunes gets things ready for summer get rid of dead plants clears leaves. these are some of the ideas iv come up with?!?!

any trade which is affected by the weather or involes getting around hosing estates in this bad weather is suffering , i know a carpet fitter who was getting stuck on most streets and having to dig himself out everytime his workload has nearly halfed due not getting around as normal,  And people think the self employed have it easy

I tend to keep a lot of gardening work on in the winter, mainly clearing leaves and rubbish along with turfing and fencing. I have had a call today about a fallen tree which fell from the weight of the snow so hopefully I can get the truck out and clear that tomorrow.
