Harry's Home and Garden Blog

Hello! My name is Harry and this is my home and garden blog. For many years, I didn't pay much attention to my property. I let the garden become overgrown and the property to become shabby. However, when I retired and began to spend more time at home, I realised that I needed to take action. I contacted a team of local home and garden contractors and asked them for help. They did a great job of helping me to plan the improvements before getting on with completing the job. I am so happy with the results, I decided to start this blog.
