    List Of Things To Do

    1. Remove leaking geyser and replace. Geyser has been dripping from the casing into the tray for about a month.
    2. Remove and replace shower in 1st floor bathroom. Shower was a cheap one installed in a great hurry as a temporary measure 5 years ago to allow us to move back into the house after extension building works. It has a minor leak and it's generally cheap and sub standard.
    3. Replace 20 square meters of car port poly-carbonate roofing damaged in high winds about 3 years ago. Just roof sheeting, structure is fine.
    4. Repair wooden gate at side of house. It just disintegrated with age.
    5. Remove and strip badly corroded irrigation enclosure, refit water pump, fertilizer pump and irrigation controls and valves into replacement stainless steel enclosure.
    6. Finish porch lighting installation.
    7. Finish building outside braai place.
    8. Finish installing LED garden lighting.
    9. Remove dead lemon tree that I salvaged from a friends house before they sold it but it subsequently died.
    10. Trim trees in garden.
    11. Clean up pool area and install roller mechanism for the solar pool blanket.
    12. Install extract hood, stainless ducting and fan for kitchen stove.

    14. Service and descale cappuccino machine.
    15. Finish installing polycarb burglar bars.
    16. Install 100sq m of carpet in first floor bedroom and landing
    17. Replace broken attic window (requires 8m of scaffold to access)
    18. Clean garden flat which I use as library.
    19. Service both cars.
    20. Pick up dog poo.
    21. Repair hole made in wall to fix plumbing leak about a year ago. (plaster and paint hole only, leak is fixed)
    22. Repair 2 x bicycles with various symptoms of blatant abuse and neglect.
    23. Find intermittent earth leakage tripping fault on 1st floor DB Has generally been tripping about once a month for the last year or more but is getting more frequent of late. It's tripped twice this week already....
    24. Finish reinstalling laptop.
    25. Install new motherboard and graphics card on lounge entertainment PC.
    26. Tidy office
    27. Tidy workshop.
    28. Replace timer on pool solar heater pump.
    29. Partition, install carpet, decorate and furnish a bedroom in the attic for my sister's arrival in March.
    30. Repair mother-in-laws washing machine.
    31. Replace swimming pool filter sand.
    32. Finish herb garden landscaping.
    33. Replace broken irrigation sprinklers x3
    34. Finish repairing Hi Fi speakers x2.
    35. Paint house and garage exterior.
    36. Replace intermittently sticking well-point pressure switch.
    37. Replace 2 x toilet seats.
    38. Replace sticking wheels on kitchen drawers.

    I'm sure I've forgotten a few things so I may add at a later date.

    I'm looking for volunteers who have all the time in the world, don't mind doing things my way and are happy to work for next to nothing (no wages, I might stretch to buying you a Streetwise II once in a while and go some way toward covering you travel costs as long as you live within a few Km and are using public transport). I have all the materials already so the successful applicant(s) can start work immediately and carry on tirelessly all the way through the Christmas holidays and into January.
