Delegating is not an easy task. Be proud that you are capable of assessing the situation and knowing:
Who to delegate to
How much to delegate to them
When to delegate
In which manner it should be done
Where the delegating should take place
Knowing why there is a need for delegation in just this instance
... and finally knowing how much of the task in hand you have some aversion to doing yourself.
Truly a skill worth having.
Having said that, I' love to donate a tree. That way, me and other ex-pats would have some 'physical' roots in the town. Maybe the keen gardeners who take such good care of keeping Bedlington in bloom with the hanging baskets etc wouldn't mind being delegated to/asked politely?
