Plus he promised Ruth he'd adopt her cats and, while cats are more self-sufficient, they do require some attention.

He obviously listens to music - opera (which I think is slightly out of character - Harry's more a jazz man, I think!) and Led Zeppelin (ep 6.9) which I am pleased about, because it's in keeping with his age.

I agree, though, that he'd probably be wondering what on earth he'd do with himself if he wasn't on the Grid. I have a few ideas...but I'll keep them to myself. :-0

Hee! I bet you do.

Well, I'm sure Harry has a housekeeper or something, as he doesn't have time to clean the house or any such things. So I'm sure she/he also takes care of the pets. But I really don't think he has any life outside of work - in his diary he says that once he became Section Head he is picked up at 07:00 in the mornings and usually don't leave the grid till late in the evening. So yes, Beatriz, I for one think there is fear on Harry's side that he no longer knows how to lead a normal life, and that this is a factor in him staying on despite all the pressures and demands of the job.
