  Come get Hammered and Nailed* at our down and dirty work parties every sunday. Your friends Dylan, Melanie and Trinity bought a house in West O and along with Dirt, 10, Eric, Nikki, Donna and more, they need your help. There's a lot of work to do on this gorgeous old fixer upper and we have visions of lovely soirees in the future when she's done being a construction zone. We are looking for people who know us and maybe know of the house who have contractor skills, a desire to help restore a beautiful old victorian or a willingness to do dirty grunt work and love us enough to help out. As the costs for supplies are constant, there is little extra for beer and stuff(we'll see what we can do), but we're gonna try to be able to offer a meal or something for your time and energy. Please only come if you are serious about working as there is little space for just hangin' out in a work zone. There will be time for that when the house is in it's full glory.  If you're interested please call any of the aforementioned household members for details. Our thanks in advance :].
