The Unruly is Tamed


With Liam still struggling with his shoulder injury, me still struggling with my ankle injury and a series of wet weeks stopping us from paying our garden any attention it was starting to look very unruly. If we were to get it into any sort of shape for winter we needed some help.

Fortunately this came yesterday in the form of Matt, of Green Barrow Gardening Services, and his many power tools. We employed his services to tame the hedges, retrain the lawns and give the garden a general tidy up just in time for the winter months.

The difference was immediately noticeable from the other end of the street as we approached the house. The gardens look so much better that we are going to continue employing his services on a monthly basis to keep the gardens looking as good as they does now. What with us spending most of our spare time on the boat the gardens were becoming a bit of a bind. With Matt’s help we will be able to look forward to coming home and spending some relaxing time in the garden. We will still have to mow the lawn in between his visits but this isn’t a difficult task and only takes half an hour every other week.

Hopefully come spring our garden will be in much better shape. It may seem a little excessive employing a gardener for your typical estate garden but it will free us up loads of spare time during the week. Happy days.
