Job Description

JOB 1
I have a privet hedge in the front garden of my home - it needs trimming back. Please contact two local gardeners to obtain quotes for this, including callout charge and price quoted for the job. If they all have call-out charges, please establish their hourly (or daily) rate, since I might give them some extra work in the garden if I have to pay a call-out charge - but I'd rather just have the hedge done.

JOB 2
Please find me two quotes for an at home-installation of my IPhone 4G into my car, so that I can :
i) listen to music from my iPod in my car
ii) Control the Iphone from my steering wheel (volume and track selection are the only must-haves, any other functions are just nice to have)
Please obtain a separate quote for:
iii) A Bluetooth & microphone implementation so that I can take calls through the iPhone and be heard clearly.
I guess the ideal solution would be whatever technical kit would give me 1,2 and 3, but I want 1 and 2 most of all and I'm on a budget.
For 1&2, I know Halfords do something like this for £200, but I don't know how good the kit is.

I don't wish to pay more than £300 for 1,2 and 3. Please ask supplier to list the kit they would use.
(My car is Vauxhall Astra Mk 5 1.8 "Elite" spec, Reg Ax04FHU, 2004 model, factory-fit stereo for model)

JOB 3
Using http://www.seat61.com, please work out prices and journey times to travel to Athens, Greece by:
1. by train and ferry only
2. first class and second class prices,
3. the quickest route.
Please split out each stage of the journey by price and journey time - Seat61 has long paragraphs with this info, but they're too long; I'd like them split out into bullet points by journey time and price e.g.

Waterloo - Paris D:15.00 A: 18:00 1st £200 2nd £100
Then add up a total cost of 1st and second class tickets. Please note I'd rather not cabins/sleepers with anyone, but I may have to.

Assume departure from London of Monday 1st November. I need to be in Athens for about eight hours during the day before making the return journey. I guess I would rather not spend the night there but am prepared to if necessary.

NB I live in Shepherd's Bush, West London
