Just had a look John...

It says it's about 'women' - this series uncovers just what puts the 'great' into britain.

Same programme is on at 6am tomorrow morning... perhaps yours was shown last night and this morning??? Shame... would have liked to have watched.

I'm SORRY IF I WASTED YOUR TIME.

Post: # 20298Post john »

:mrgreen: :( Hi All,I'm sorry but it was not on today as we thought it might be. All I can say is the programme is on again next week,and that Tuesday and Thursday have something to do with using,space,or gardening. Apart from that we don't know when it's on either. It just said The Secret of Suburbia,which I did for SKY1 back in June 2005. Thank you once again for showing your interest in what I'm doing,fingers crossed it's on next week. John J.R.P.

SECTRET LIFE of SUBURBIA.

Post: # 21166Post john »

:mrgreen: :lol: Hi ALL,it was on at 6pm on the 23-5-2006 and at 6am on the 24-5-2006,which I thought would have shown more about the way I do things after spending nearly the whole day filming,but 10 minutes was allowed for each section of the programme,which after editing changed the context of what I said to fit what some people are like who like to be so different it became laughable,which I did not know about when I said they could help me to promote me and my ideas.
For a start my name is Pendergast not P(r)endergast,and I live in Eltham in Greenwich not in Dartford in Kent. And when I said that I can grow things in the desert,this was said in the context of an example along with other ways. And for me to say that no matter what happened I will not give up my re-use of waste project,was said when I had most of the old folk allotment plot holders against what I was using my allotment plot for,and they were doing things to try and get me off it in many different ways,which I'm pleased to say has died down now. Apart from that it did show me and some of my ideas off to others,which someone might have found of interest. We enjoyed anyway which I hope others did too. John. J.R.P.

Bad luck John. It's a strange a galling world we live in, when one of the greatest means of communication that we have invented, so often gets used as a means to belittle and laugh at the efforts of other people.

Still, as some wag once said, 'There's no such thing as bad publicity'. Unfortunately he went on to add '...as long as they spell your name right'. You just can't win, sometimes, can you?

ASKING FOR HELP?

Post: # 28253Post john »

:mrgreen: Hi ALL,for those who are interesed in my ideas,I sent a e-mail to the Permaculture Council of Management UK the other day to see if they can help me to get my ideas used,and I've sent a e-mail to Sir Cliff Richard too,to see if he can help me,as he believes in tying to help others too,in his own way.
I'm waiting for a reply from both of them,I wonder if I will get a reply, as one has two people at the heart of a big organisation,and the other one is a fames person with a big heart who is in his sixtys too,like me.
May you and yours live long and happy. John. J.R.P.

WISLEY GARDENS VISIT?

Post: # 33059Post john »

:mrgreen: :lol: Hi ALL,I'm going to visit WISLEY GARDENS on the 13-9-2006 along with lots of others as part of a FREE DAY run by our Greenwich Council.
I'm also going to take with me one of my 4 base container rows with 8 others to go inside them,to show of my very simple to make transportable water recycling system to grow things in. I'm only going to promote my idea,So I will only be interested in their container gardening section,as I don't grow anythings in the ground my self,even though we have a nice looking laid out garden our selves. Plus I hope this will also help to promote the re-use of some of our waste instead of it going into landfill sites in the UK,and in the rest of the world.
I've tried asking what it seems the mountain to come to me,this way I'm going to the mountain in person you could say, with lots of others who are interested in growing things,plus I might have the chance to speak to one of their experts to get my idea used in some way too.
Please let me know if your going ,so we can look out for each other on what I hope will be a nice day,for all of us,who enjoying growing things on a large or small scale. May you and yours live long and happy. John. J.R.P.

I'M ON TV AGAIN?

Post: # 34620Post john »

:mrgreen: Hi ALL,it's me again trying to promote my ideas. For those who haven't seen me on SKY Three TV yet,I should be on again tomorrow 25-9-2006 at 10 30am or one day in the week. The Secret Life Of, to do with Gardening in suburbia is my topic. If I can save one life by posting on this website I think its got to be worth it,I'm sorry if you think I'm wasting my time as I'm no further than I was 8 years ago,but if someone out there can help me to get my ideas used or up and running,they might like to take a look to see if they can help me in some way by watching the TV programme. May we all live long and happy. John.J.R.P.

would you stop bumping your own posts please? Its irritating.

And you haven't succinctly answered any of the questions posed to you.

In fact, in previous post, you slated forum member for being 'negative' towards you when all they were doing was asking about the mechanics of your 'invention'.

I'll step down from my soapbox now..it needs to be filled with compost for the potatoes...

:mrgreen: :lol: Hi ALL who are interested in the way I do things. To day the 5-11-2006 I reveal my latist design in a upright transportable growing system,which is my latist project to help those who have not a lot of space on the ground surface,but have a fence or railings or a wall going round it,which could be used to help hold it in place. I designed it for children to use or someone in a wheelchair or someone who can't dig any more. I've added 3 photos to my Cereal Crop Growing photo page for you to look at,and I've changed others on my 3 other Crop Growing pages too,which I hope will change your mind about digging in the future. My Project is to be used by our local community to show a different way of growing things,and to have fun too doing it, by adding some colours to the containers to show who's who's when in use. With a end result of a Private back yard with lots of coloured plastic containers surrounding it,with lots of different things growing in them, which also has a new green wire screen as a backing too,attached to railings which go all the way round it. Which my 3 photo show the first 3 stages of on my website. I have other designs for you to look at in the future which I hope you will find of interest too. May you and yours live long and happy to see lots of fireworks. John. J.R.P.
