Thank you again for your email ,and for its particular combination of flavour - both generous and practical. It had the effect of sending me back to my own brief, and making me refocus on it.

A proper rereading has made me see the gaps you identified, and I have moved to fill them by arranging to meet on the site on April 7th a small consultant team who my mother has used regularly on her bigger projects in America and on the continent. I think their expertise is ideally complimentary - and consists essentially of very sophisticated technical specification on drainage, plant removal, soil moving, and the possibilities of hard landscaping, together with practical experience in the UK of reconfiguring garden/nursery businesses (all the stuff to do with visitor numbers, seasonality, sales turnover, etc) I do certainly owe you this information before we have our neon session All in all, therefore, I’m inclined to regard the hiatus as productive. Could I suggest that I come back to you around the middle of April and we plan a meeting towards the end of the month. I’m still very excited by the project, and by what you might do with it!

Warmly to you both
