HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Many thanks to Brian Hattersley for sending me these great photos of his lovely garden, with the Retreats
that he has customised to suit his space. He has also used our Venetian panels along the rest of the
boundary to match the ones in the shelter.
It’s a New Year—2015! Let’s hope
it’s a peaceful and happy one for
everyone. If anything, last year
seemed to whizz by even faster
than the previous one. Yes, I know
it’s a sign of age when people say
that sort of thing!
This time last year the headlines
were focussed on the terrible
weather the country had over
Christmas and into the beginning
of the year. There were dreadful
floods and bad storms that had
caused widespread damage to
property. As a result we were busy
at Jacksons, not only supplying
fencing, but trying to send out
helpful info on how to avoid the
common mistakes that can result
in fences falling over in adverse
conditions.
At the time of writing this, the
weather has been reasonably tame
– dare I say it, I may be tempting
fate – when you read this in January,
we may well have had another
disastrous winter. Touch wood
that’s not the case, but if it is, rest
assured we still have all the helpful
advice on our website, so just go
to your local page www.jacksonsfencing.co.uk/ashfordlocal, to see
all handy links there.
So what’s needed is a swift change
of direction here, I’m going to lead
you away from the possibly gloomy
thoughts of bad weather and show
you something that will hopefully
conjure up sunnier thoughts and
happier times.

The photo at the top of the page
was sent to me by a customer, who
I met at a show, a year or so ago.
A very nice man, who was admiring
the Retreat shelter we had on our
stand. Brian took a leaflet, saying
he was very impressed with the
Retreat, and said he was going to
have one in his own garden, and
that he may adapt it to make it a
bit larger, as he had the room for
probably ‘one and a half Retreats’.
He promised me photos of the
finished installation.
This autumn I was at the same
show, when Brian visited our stand
again, “I’m nearly finished, I will
send you those photos soon," he
told me. Well they were definitely
worth waiting for. I think you’ll
agree? I certainly wouldn’t mind
this as my garden.
Thanks Brian, for showing us what
you can achieve with a Retreat –
and a half – and a lot of design
genius. Hopefully that will give us
Detail of the central paved area and the ingenious water feature focal point.
