So is this where everybody is hanging out nowadays =) Well, it's good to see some familiar names here! Does Obelix still exist? And what about miranda? Don't really know why I stopped checking out the bulletin, I think it was the email which RHS sent with the new password which reminded me of the lot of you. For those who remember me, I finished my training in ornamental horticulture in 06, also passing the RHS 2 in that summer. After that I was abroad for half a year, three months in England (Surrey), and three months in Holland, working in several nurseries, VERY interesting, not only the horticultural parts, also the learning of languages and living in different cultures. Now I'm back in CH, doing another two years of training to become a professional landscape gardener. I work for a small company which does both new-builds and maintenance, but I must say that I do prefer the latter, as new-builds are physically very strenuous and if not that a lot of machines and things. But still good to learn how things work. Yesterday we had another load of snow, but a village down the hill it was only slush so I was able to get on with some weeding there, even though my fingers and toes were numb with cold after a few minutes!! Today we had heavy frost, but it warmed up pretty soon, went to a few different customers to prune their roses and spray them, also cut several Forsythia at one place which have just finished blooming. Must get on with my study for the RHS Advanced as that is what I usually do when I get home from work and not spend all my evening on here =)
