My OH has a selection of concrete animals, bears, rabbits, tortoises, and so on plus numerous solar lights.... to do the grass properly they ALL need moving.......which I refuse to do,
so........it only gets strimmed, or if I am being benevolent I get the hedge trimmer out,and use that as electric scissors!!!!!..

Bees are scarce - encourage them!!
However, you could keep him on Harlequin Ladybird watch!
I can only water half the garden - as it's so hot, the cats sleep under the shrubs at night - I have to give them somewhere to go!
If all of the borders were wet, they'd manage to walk mud into the house!

Oh cannot:
mow or weed the lawn ... we have a bumper crop of clover with honey bees visiting
Cut the hedge ... Blackbirds nesting

They are the only things he usually does!
