Yet again Facebook has seen fit to delete one of my post's and does not see fit to let me ask why?

If my appeal fails yet again, and i think it might, i will be giving up on FB.

For the loyal customers who still like and want one of my hanging baskets, call me, 07703028049. Not posting my email on here as the amount of scam, junk mail i am now getting is crazy, only last week and i have no idea why and how, i had to order new cards from my bank as some scumbag had tried to use it at a Walmart in the USA.

Be very carefull out there people, scum is not just a ring around your bathtub anymore. 😀

The people who could not tell you what the weather is, as they look out the window at the snow, reckon it's going to stay cold for the next three days.

If any of my customers would like a 25KG bag or bags of rock salt at £8 for the first bag and £6 a bag thereafter, please let me know. This is a local delivery service only, no collections, and if any older customers need help spreading, I can do that for free. Please remember I am less than human with my own difficulties, so no p**s takers. Also remember I drive a van, not a tractor or a super vehicle, if you live up or down a big hill and have trouble getting in or out, my vehicle is just a normal van so if I feel I cannot risk it, sorry.

I am not offering this service for profit, this is just me trying to give a little back. The sacks are £6 each, that's what I pay for them. I have to source them, order them and collect them myself at my own cost. The first bag at £8 is just to cover my diesel, which, as many of you know, does not grow on trees.

For past customers and pensioners in need only, if I do not know you, sorry, I cannot help.

Message me for rock salt, tell me where and what you purchased from me and where from. I need your full address, sorry again but, I am not a mind reader, a contact number in case I cannot find or get to you and most importantly, when you will be in, if for any reason you are not in when I call I cannot call back again (will not).

Cash on delivery, please.

Just took an inventory of what is left.
I have 5 12" and 8 14" Hanging Baskets left, plus two 12" trailing all around.
Unless there are any requests before 10am tomorrow, I shall be taking them all with me tomorrow to see what sells.

All set up for my last day in Runcorn this year.
A reduced load today of just one stand, 6 x 12" & 6 x14" Hanging Baskets, if I am honest, it is too hot and I was struggling.

This weekend will be my last out selling Hanging Baskets.

Not sure if anyone else is not as happy with their Baskets this year as me? Having paid top £ for this year's plants i was expecting breathtaking displays of Safinias, trailing Petunia, but that has not happened in my own personal Hanging Baskets. Most if not all the other Hanging Baskets I made up and sold have yielded great results so I have no idea what went wrong, my Baskets look good, just not as good, but the strange thing is, I have four Hanging Baskets on the front of my house and I planted three Safinias in each and not one has grown or trailed at all.

Anyway, Saturday is will be between Windmill Hill & Manor park.

My very last day will be in the layby, opposite the Spires, Stretton, A49, Warrington.

Sad to say it but these are my penultimate Hanging Baskets of the season. Running very low on the quality plants I use and shop bought are just too expensive. I will be out this weekend so as usual first come, first served.
