We had a harder than normal job of replanting vines in the vineyard, heavy buckets multiple things to remember,
Brigid did it all with no complaints and a wonderful well done job of it.
This girl is going to do great in most anything she sets her eyes on.
Many thanks go to Brigid for all the wonderful help here.
He is polite and respectful also good in a group or by himself able to get ride share almost anywhere.
If you need a tall strong guy he is your man.
Happy travels to you Joran.
They are very hospitable.

We had a very large job of digging 930 holes and what a trooper he was.
There was some messy work to get done and James did it all with a smile on.
James would be a great person in most any establishment.
Many thanks go to James for all the work done here.

We would definitely have Franz back here, what a wonderful person he is.
He was willing to help with all our different jobs we had here even the heavy stuff was no problem.
We moved a lot of rock, sand and dirt for new water features and cut in new paths, through some very thorny areas, also picked and packed grapes.
Always a greeted with a smile and so very helpful.
