John from Huntsbury

Hello folks, let's talk about a topic that's near and dear to our hearts - DIY around the home!

Whether you're a seasoned home improvement pro or a beginner just starting out, there's one thing you can't afford to overlook: safety. That's why I've put together a list of six essential safety tips to keep you and your home in one piece while you're working on your next project. So grab your tools, put on your safety goggles (because they're not just for show), and let's get it done while keeping things safe and sound.
1. Put on your safety gear - you CAN look like a superhero in goggles and gloves!
2. Read the instructions - knowledge is power and safety!
3. Check your tools - make sure they're in tip-top shape before you start swinging.
4. Use the right tool for the job - why make things harder than they already are?
5. Keep your work area tidy - a clean space means less chance of tripping over cords and tools.
6. Be aware of your surroundings - watch out for any potential hazards, and if in doubt, ask for help. Remember, it's better to be safe than sorry!

I'm wondering if anyone knows anybody that could help an elderly friend of mine.
She lives in Waddington (Darfield, Shiefield way) and has bought a wooden shed.
She has a bit of a concrete pad, but it probably needs extending.
The shed sides and roof are basically a piece each. Has plans with it.
She also needs a clothes line put in, has the poles etc, just needs holes dug and filled with concrete.
She's on a pension, so can't afford alot, but really needs the shed for her winter firewood.
Anyone know anyone out that way, or who would be willing to travel out there to help her.
Shed plans, photos etc can be provided for means of a quote etc.
