There’s a franchise called ‘Hire a Hubby’ and it is remarkably true to its name. They’re a bunch of guys who promise to come round to your house and do odd jobs, or not, as the case may be.
A friend of Emergency Contact’s called them and got one of the Hubbies to come around and give her a quote on putting up some fly-screens. His professional opinion:
“Nah, it’s too hard, love.”
Not being put off, she did get the guy to paint her attic (not a euphemism). He seemed ok with that, and when he was around coating her interior (not a euphemism), she asked him how much it would be to strip back her draws (not a euphemism). His professional opinion:
“Easier to just get some new ones, love.”
For a little extra, they'll sit on your couch and drink your beer for you.
