The Backyard of Doom: Bringing a whole new meaning to Garden Nightmare!

So some of you will probably remember this property because I've already done 3 episodes here. Back then I decided not to clean up the backyard and some of the front as it was just too crazy. Well, I've had a change of heart, and I'm back to finish off the whole lot. And when I say this yard is crazy, i mean CRAZY! It's full of blackberries, rubbish, old trees and what's left of the garden beds. To get this property back up to scratch, I would say it going to be quite a few episodes. I'm going to do the best I can here, as the homeowner really needs the help. I'm also going to go back over the work I've done, as I could have done better! I hope you enjoy the episode and stay tuned for the biggest transformation I've ever done - What a challenge! All up, I spent around 11.5 hours on this job, including 3 trips to the landfill. This is episode 4 of who knows how many episodes.

_______________________________________________
FAQ's:
Q: Where are you located?
A: I am from Hobart, Tasmania, Australia 🦘.
Q: Do you worry about snakes?
A: I have never even seen a snake in over 5 years on the job.
Q: Which equipment do you use?
A: Mostly STIHL power equipment (battery and petrol) and commercial Honda self-propelled mowers.
Q: How much do the jobs cost?
A: Sorry, I prefer not to talk about costs.
Q: Why don't you use tarps instead of bins?
A: Tarps are too difficult to move through small spaces and lift into the trailer. The same for wheelbarrows, they are only good for unloading the trailer!
Q: Why are the hot water cylinders outside?
A: I would say it's because Australia had a temperate to tropical climate, and therefore it doesn't matter that much if they are outdoors. To me, though, it seems a bit inefficient to have them outside in Tasmania with a temperate climate (coldish for 3 - 4 months per year). But that is industry standard down here 🤷‍♂️
Q: Why don't you have help?
A: I've had many problems with employees in the past, so now I work alone.
Q: Why don't you have a ride-on mower?
A: Well, there are a few reasons.
1. I don't have the right trailer for a ride on, considering I always take away the green waste.
2. I don't have anywhere to store it, as my shed is too small.
3. A lot of the properties we do have fences and gates, so you can't actually get a ride-on on to the properties.
4. I don't do enough big jobs to justify spending 15k AUD on a stander, but it would be nice to have one!
5. I will get one as soon as my transport and storage problems are solved.
Q: What types of ladders do you use?
A: The large one is a Gorilla Adjustable Platform 150kg and the small one is a Gorilla Mighty 19. They are both adjustable.
Q: Who/what is Jim's Mowing?
A: Jim's Mowing is a franchise business. The Jim's Group is the biggest home services franchise in Australia.
Q: Why do you have 2 channels that seem to be the same?
A: Quick Cuts (my original channel) has music in the background. Quick Cuts V2 is for those that like just machine noise, and it doesn't have music.

Give my love to the woman. It is so hard to have a son with a severe mental illness. As we say in support groups, "These are not casserole illnesses!" A casserole illness is where all your friends and family offer support, bringing food (casseroles), helping with yard work, shopping, etc., like they do if someone has a heart attack or other physical illness. The isolation is devastating, and just getting out of bed every morning to deal with life becomes hard. Thank you for helping her. You have no idea how much this means to her!

[@cathleeny8670]

❤I was just going to write something similar. I am a mother, and it was tough enough without either of them having major “issues”. To the mother and son: I wish you both peace and love. I’m very sorry the son was hit by a car, and I am sure this does not help the situation. ❤

[@mikeomalley5407]

Not to mention that those who suffer from bipolar and Schizophrenia often don’t take the prescribed medications, which doesn’t help to manage to manage the diseases. To your specific point: Friends and neighbors often fear stopping by to help because unmediated patients can have strange behaviors that are foreign to them.

[@samanthasadie6118]

Honestly one of the best descriptions of living with mental illness I’ve come across. Even family and loved ones don’t always ‘get it’, but I don’t expect them to, how do you understand something you don’t have experience with. Great comment @miriamrighter1666 👍

George getting ‘stuck in’ means we’re in for a treat! I’m happy to hear the lady’s son is healing up from the accident, that must have been scary. This episode was crazy good, with so much ‘stuff’ taken away. Fun tip run, and hi to Kelvin 👋 The rain ASMR was lovely, reminds me of home. I thought that long piece was wood, but it was metal? Crazy! That patio clean was phenomenal, I hope the other side is included later 💕 Can’t wait to see where you take us next! 👏👏👍👍

Oh, George, sometimes I can't believe how hard you work on a place. You must be so incredibly fit. I was so gobsmacked at what you did in this episode. When I saw it start to pour down I said a one-syllable swearword, and then saw you had put "Rain ASMR" and it really made me change my attitude quick smart. So much rubbish in that carport/shed thingie!!! And then you scrubbed off all the cobwebs and dirt!! You are THE man. What on earth was that massive hunk of metal over by the fence? I so admired you for not letting it win. Hope you had a nice soothing bath afterwards, dabbed some ointment on all your cuts, and can relax all day tomorrow. Also hope the son will be okay mentally and physically. Not a good idea to try and cross highways. Maybe they were able to tweak his meds so he's more stable.
