THE FOLKESTONE HANDYMAN

THE FOLKESTONE HANDYMAN

I often need things done in the garden and around the flat so I was pleased when I came across Chris the handyman. He did a great job of clearing all the wild garlic, weeds, and all the cutting back of the grapevine and climbers. There was so much rubbish so I was thankful that he could take it all away. He can turn his hand to most things but will tell you straight away if he cannot do it. He prices by the job and you pay when he has finished. You can contact him on Facebook here.

The next project is being chatted about on WhatsApp and sounds really exciting, I’m so pleased we have all managed to keep…

    I read The Write Way to Die a couple of years ago and have been patiently waiting for the second book in this series, Bang To Rights. I thought the first book was good but this second one is even better, especially since it is set in Folkestone where the author Jo and I live, plus a few others from the books!
