Nathan - can I ask - why do you actively encourage other windys in your area to go wfp? surely long term your encouraging more competition for yourself - why would you want that???

These lads i know very well, good friends of mine for over 10 yrs and they dont work in my area.
For everyone else, competition is sometimes healthy. It keeps you on your toes and makes sure you dont become complacent. Ive seen competition come and go and wfp competition will be no different. If they cant hack it, cant get the rounds, dont like the messers etc etc, they wont stick around regardless which method they use.

[Smurf]

I'm sure they are old enough now if  they wanted to go to find their own way there without the need for you to  hold their hands all the same surely 

[Mick Kent]

No

[DaveG]

Classic

[Clever Forum Name]

Yeah I am going.

A couple of suppliers have my interest.

[Smurf]

I will have you know I've just replaced my workstation chair as was worn out with an executive leather high back swivel.
Cost me a fiver as next door was getting rid (no questions asked) 

[Smurf]

Yeah I am going.

A couple of suppliers have my interest.

To be honest I would have liked to have gone as would have been good to have a play with some of the soft washing kit on offer to compare.

Do you know if they are doing any live demos of the kit actualy running?

[Ian101]

Hoping to pick up the clever wash injector or order.

[Smurf]

Shop around for the same thing under a different name at the show you might find a better deal!

 i know the oem name but its still £700 plus!

[Smurf]

I see now benz  had the idea of using  a dosatron static in a van for mixing chems at the right dilution rate into van tanks rather than use it as an on demand trolley unlike mr cleaver whatever his name is.

 

[CF Facilities]

Is it free to get in?

[Tosh]

I was going to go, I left home this morning meaning to go, but I ended up on the other side of London finishing a school job off.

That'll teach me to forget two sets of windows which cost me a 5 hour round trip round the M25.

Better than Franky last year. He was going to go and ended up in hospital. 

[Tosh]

I got soaked. I had to go back and do two sets of windows we'd mistakenly missed on that school job. 5 firkin hours round the M25, what a joyful day.

Would've liked to have gone, did you go in the end Steve? I would've liked to had a look at a few bits and pieces to compare with existing kit; poles, brushes etc.

[geri cheek]

was really good. got given a secret freebie by mr.wagtail himself

No. I didn't fancy the drive on my own. I was going to go with Cliff Perkins (used to be on here) but he decided to take his motorhome and I didn't fancy stopping over for the "evening's entertainment".

[geri cheek]

i left before the bullpop kicked in proper. i heard an opening gambit "iv 4000 customers and do it all on my own,,,secret is i only clean em twice a year  on my own i tell you "
 i knew i had to leave then  before it ruined my day

Surely with your wealth you could have paid an employee to drive you there, might have been a nice trip for you and
mummy. lol.

Did it take you long to think that one up?

Although it would have been nice to give the new car a run out.   

[Smurf]

Nice motor but makes yer garage door look crap now don't it

True! 

[SB Cleaning]

Nice car 

It's a ford

[Don Kee]

What is that?

Its not the front end for the new family fords, and its not a Ranger, not big enough....

Assuming a Kuga or Edge, something along those lines..? One of those ecosport jobbies?

It's the new Ranger.  It's a wide angle lens.l so a bit misleading.

Knee slapper that. Yes, she does but she can't get into it as she's arthritic. I'm sure your mum approves of your decision to not work very hard and not earn much also.

It is pretty nice inside. It's not for work other than quoting. I have a basic model Transit Custom which is a nice vehicle. Lovely to drive - just like a car but no aircon - not that it bothers me as I don't drive it anymore.
