The idea of this forum is to allow members of Harringay Online to offer skills or abilities they have to their neighbours and get something in return. It might be something as simple as the ability to walk a dog - pretty useful to a neighbour who may be ill. Or, it may be that you have some trade skills like carpentry or plumbing to offer or some professional capabilities as an accountant, lawyer or whatever.
The idea is that you swap skills - or give them freely. This forum is explicity NOT for people who want to run a small business or sell their services.

I'm a digital video specialist. I can convert pretty much any type of digital video into any other type. For example Quicktime to Windows Media video.
I do basic bike maintenance (brakes, gears etc.) If I don't think I can fix it safely I'll tell you.
I do a bit of dry-stone walling as a hobby. I'm not very experienced yet but I'm learning!
I also do a pretty mean job of retouching and repairing damaged photographs. Just a hobby.
