So here's my story, three years ago i had a garden, it wasn't much but it was getting there, and it had a koi pond i dug by hand and half killed me. Then we decided to move! so we bought a new house, which lacked the things most of us take for granted, like heating for example, but it did have a lot of over things, like spiders that walked around like they owned the place. It also has a garden, although this was mainly moss and 30 foot fir trees.
so jump forward three years, most things with eight legs or more have been eradicated, and a chainsaw put paid to the 11 trees, a good fun afternoon with a concrete breaker got rid of the path, and lots of digging and skip filling saw the back of the rockery that was trendy once, and now we are ready.
