To think this is too much to ask

[ThisLittleKitty]

My friend has just found an exchange for a 3 bed council house (so will be swapping with her 2 bed) anyway the property requires ALOT of work and looks to be in very poor condition (she took pics to show me) anyway she asked if I could help her paint it. I told her with 4 kids it wouldn't really be possible and that I need my own house painting but I do it when they are in bed asleep. Anyway she said when I drop my older 2 to school I could walk down to the house (about 15 minute walk and paint it whilst she's at work! I agreed to it as was caught of guard but now think this is really cheeky. Aibu?

Your friend is either mad or a CF.

Oh yeh didn't think of that. You wouldn't be able to just paint the walls the walls are really bad. Apparently the woman's going to fill in the holes before leaving that's how bad they are. The bathroom looks horrendous.

I can’t for the life of me ever imagine someone asking this. What the hell?! To ask if you could spare a few hours over a weekend to HELP her paint it, or to watch her kids while she paints or something, sure. But to ask you to go to her house while she’s at work?! I wouldn’t even ask family to put themselves out so much.

She thinks that as you're a SAHM you do nothing all day except drink coffee and watch daytime TV, while she's out all day working.

Time to put her straight.

Oh, fuck her off! She's got more front than Sainsbury's. She has a 14-year-old, they can do it in her time off. Don't offer alternatives or offer to do it with her or find her decorators.

That's exactly what she thinks.

I agree with devil

She shouldn't take on the house if she's unable to fix it up to her standards.

Are you allowed to swap a 2-bed council property for a 3-bed if you only have one child? That really doesn’t seem right. She sounds a CF all round. Do not do her painting for her.

"No". Sorted.

Apparently you can swap from a 2 bed to a 3 if you don't get any benefits.

Hell no!!

I had to have help painting mine recently. I sent messages to ASK if anyone was free! I would never have expected this!

Paintzilla she is a cheeky fucker. Someonr needs to bolt that damn gate shut!

and yes it would mean painting with a baby and a 3 year old.

If she doesn't take No for an answer start rambling about toddler paint art.
You know, when you let little children loose in a house with paint [non toxic hopefully]

Ahhh I can dream. I know it wouldn't really happen.
