It can't just be me that gets asked for all sorts of extra things. It always starts with "While you are here do you think you cold have a look at......"
Blocked drains, locks that wont work, cars that won't start, fences that have blown down all come quickly to mind.
Do you do decorating? is another regular.

What about you? whats the strangest / funniest ?

Trim the ivy growing up into the eaves, gable end!!  40 ft up!!
"while you're here ...move the double wardrobe, which I couldn't!

About a month ago.."while you're here, help me up?"  Old lady had fallen flat on her back in the garden almost unconscious!  Almost carried her back in, carefully.  Neighbour called the doctor.  Went back this time, she died!  Son put the house up for sale.  Where was he?

Oh yes there always a lot of lifting jobs to do. The thing is most of it is no real trouble and its good for business in the long run.
Its just that some of it is a bit bizarre.

[DASERVICES]

  The oddest job was to put up an IKEA flatpack, and this was a guy who asked.
   
  I did it an charged £30, took a couple of hours though.

A regular one for me is while you are here can u change the
bulb on the security light, and they never have a pozidrive
screwdriver in the house.

I think one of the oddist ones was can you bleed my central
heating system, that was 2  weeks ago. :

I once ironed the sleeves of a flirty woman's wedding outfit.

She was the one to be married too.

She said because I was ex-army, I must be able to iron.

You denying your ironing ability?   Besides, was she half naked waiting for the dress?   Assume you did it?

[windows_chepstow]

   Assume you did it?

Yes, just the dress though.  This woman is also a 'belly-dancing teacher'.

She can do the splits without warming up and stretching.

She showed me once.  She just dropped to the ground in the splits.

I was really amazed!

She is very flirty though.  I prefer it when she's out, or when Wor Lass is with me.

I get easily frightened.

if it rains can you bring the washing in!

... this is what my mum said once as a joke to our w/c back home... and it rained... so he did it! bless!

I'd be more than happy to take that one off your hands Tosh. 

Or maybe swap it for 3 of mine.

[Mr. S]

The funniest thing ive been asked to do is CLEAN WINDOWS! LOL

[Dick]

"While you're here, (I wasn't exactly but was outside putting ladders on roofrack) can you open this please." A jar of beetroot! But I then got asked to quote to clean a conservatory roof, so maybe a good turn etc.

I'm not sure you would.  You might know her.  It's Helen from Hughes Crescent, Garden City.  She used to work in Thornton's sweet shop in the town centre.
