    =================
    2023: At the moment I have started to load and unload the lorry in July and this will continue though August and September and October. I am needing help in loading and unloading the lorry for the moment shifting my belongings to the property in France.
    =================

    I am an early retired person that seeks to renovate and improve a property in France. For this I am looking for someone who is interested in helping and at the same time teach me Frensh as mine is only rudementary.

    But this is still a project in progress.


    The property needs some work on it in terms of renewing the electricity for which a qualified person only would be suited, general renovation on the building inside and outside. It is habitable and in a small village. I am looking at improving the insulation, installing a kitchen as there is one that works but needs updating although a makeshift kitchen is available as long as the renovation goes on.

    I am also looking at putting a snooker table in one of the rooms. If someone has some expertise in this I could need a hand there as well. Although this looks like its not going to happen this year.

    And finally the garden could do with some attention to it. I am attemptimg to rebuild a stone wall as well and could need help there as well.
