Buddha Beds!!!

 Good morning guys, most of you have probably seen my disheartened post the other day about me feeling a bit down on the financial side of things to do with the Phantom Planter.


I've been trying for so long now to earn a decent living from it to help fuel my passion in what I'm doing. There's nothing more I'd love to be doing than going round phantom planting fruit trees and maintaining them, getting my free fruit tree map app all updated and promoting it also so everyone can have free fresh fruit. I also have plans for my Oak Grove museum and several other community and nature projects I had on my mind.


But for the past while I've been spending hours every day doing all sorts of work to do with the phantom planter and It's always been in the back of my head at times, what am I doing??


As most of you know I've been donated a small plot of land and I'm intending on building a cabin on it and I need money to do this. I'm living in a rotted rented cabin right now which isn't mine and my van is getting old too with 200k miles on it.

Its crosses my mind all the time when I'm putting all my energy on here and not making much money from it and other areas of my life need sorted badly!


All I want is my permanent home made and some sort of financial security behind me. I'm coming 44 here soon and just want money to build my home.


It doesn't look like I'm going to be able to support my life through trying to get donations on here or trying to get people to setup regular Patreon payments of £3.50 a month to help me.

It really did dishearten me that out of 115k followers I couldn't get 1% signed up for £3.50 a month. 1% is all I needed to make my life complete. That would have built me everything I needed over the next couple of years working away at the land I've been given.


But here's the bright side of things for me!


Something I've never told or mentioned on here is what I do for a living and how do I make my money.


I have a small mattress business, I've been selling mattresses for over 20 years. In the past I've had manufactured mattresses, recycled mattresses, had mattress domino events, built mattress bonfires, I've insulated warehouses with mattresses and I even have a criminal record for deception for selling mattresses believe or not!!! I've been bankrupted for selling mattress also!

Yes!! I've got all the war wounds and medals for mattress selling!


Call me a mattress therapist, I've experienced all the hardship there is in mattress selling!


For some reason over all my wheeling and dealing life selling everything from a show lace to a double decker bus I've always sold mattresses as a sideline.

I've had many furniture and mattress shops in the past and I've sold nearly every mattress brand out there!


I have a small mattress showroom just outside Belfast which I'm not about to say for phantom planter security reasons. But I've always wanted to setup a mattress business called-


                              Buddha Beds 

   "For a Peaceful and Meditative Nights Sleep"


So last night I set it all up and I can post my mattresses anywhere in the UK. If you order in Belfast and surrounding areas you might just get a delivery from the Phantom Planter himself and my little helper Wee Betty!


I'm a wheeler dealer at heart and always will be, feel free to like and share my page Buddha Beds. 

For every mattress sold a tree will be phantom planted.

And the mattresses I sell are some of the best on the market at a fraction of other big name prices. These are good karma mattresses for me. Not like the s**t I've sold in the past. I'm all about an easy simple life these days. I've sold some rubbish over the years, customers calling me back 6 months later saying a spring poked them in the bum or the mattress has collapsed and all sorts of other complaints. Now I sell a brand that I've been selling for the past 12-15 years with confidence. I know the customer will be happy with many of them coming back 5-7 years later wanting the same one. Says alot about your product.

  A bit about me and how I became the phantom planter. I grew up in a Loyalist housing estate in Belfast, my father a Protestant and my mother was a Catholic from Ardyone, that had big complications here in Northern Ireland but I always knew I was a mongrel, a bit different! My dad was a delboy ( a buyer and seller of everything and anything) and from I could walk he had me a mini Delboy, from selling round the doors to off loading lorry loads of bootlegged cigs and booze straight in from Andorra, he had me street trading and playing part in his delboy tricks to help him sell his dodgy goods! I learned fast how to make money and school for me was my business, I had more money than the teachers, my dad would have stocked my bag up at lunchtimes for me with more of his dodgy goods, perfume, tobacco, clothing, all sorts I had in my bag, even sold some of my goods to the teachers! When I left school I was financially embarrassed for a small time, 1000 pupils to me was 1000 people with a po

From Spain to Belfast Phantom Planting!

  Phantom planted another apple tree yesterday with my big glaswegian pal who is over visiting! He couldn't believe the size of the orchard now! Last time we planted a tree was years ago in Spain, 2 plum trees we phantom planted out there, sadly they didn't survive but we had great fun doing it in the lashing rain right outside the Buddhist Stupa as you can see in one of the pics, an offering to the Buddha was my intention! I was at the worst of my addictions back then, used to visit this Stupa a lot for spiritual guidance, really found myself out there, spent a lot of time in Spain soul searching, taking advantage of the cheap winter flights and free stay! I had my last ever pint at the airport after praying at this Stupa, the Buddha responded to my offering I believe! Pretty magical really, faith in a higher power guys, that did it for me, there's more to all this life, more to all this all this world! "Those who don't believe in magic will never find it"..
