  Description

  I am an early retired lady, 4 cats and 3 dogs in the house. I desperately need some trees in the wood felling, fallen deadwood from the woods needs removing from the woods, logging up with chainsaw, splitting (with mechanical splitter) and stacking in the barn for use in 2 years time. Also, maybe some maintenance, and minor tasks doing in the house, such as lime pointing, painting, etc and outside , help me setting up the veg plot for next spring, help me care for the animals too (horses, chickens, other birds, cats and dogs) . . I can't really do this all on my own and need some help..in return for 20 hours of work a week, you can have use of my Chambres d'hôtes, and share all meals with us...thank you, I look forward to hearing from you.
