RE-LAy youR LAwn with
William Shakespeare
oLympic tuRF
When to the sessions of sweet silent thought
I summon up remembrance of things past,
I sigh the lack of many a thing I sought,
And with old woes new wail my dear time’s waste:
George Davies Turf is one of many small businesses in the South East benefiting from the London 2012 Olympics and is starting to enjoy a rapid growth in sales as a direct result of our main supplier, County Turf, winning the contract to supply the turf for the Olympic Stadium. The turf was grown from a special blend of perennial ryegrass, smooth-stalked meadow grass and fescue grass seeds.
Then can I drown an eye, unus’d to flow, For precious friends hid in death’s dateless night, And weep afresh love’s long since cancell’d woe, And moan the expense of many a vanish’d sight: Then can I grieve at grievances foregone, And heavily from woe to woe tell o’er
The sad account of fore bemoaned moan, Which I new pay as if not paid before,
But if the while I think on thee dear friend, All losses are restor’d and sorrows end.
Established in 2001, we have supplied turf to a large number of golf courses for many years, as well as house-builders, landscapers, garden centres and the general public. We are now one of the premier turf suppliers in the South East of England, supplying top quality turf to Corby in the North and Central London in the South.
Shakespeare’s writings have inspired the work of thousands of artists, composers and writers. Sonnet 30 above was heavily drawn on as Proust wrote his umpteen volume novel ‘Au recherché du temps perdu.’
We have based our business on providing quality products and exceptional customer service and have developed in-depth knowledge and expertise about our products, which has led to a tremendously loyal customer base.
