There i was cleaning my van yesterday evening,and this fella wanders over to me and asks if i was a window cleaner? '
Thats right mate,i am' i replied so he asks how much to clean his widows on the house at the end of my street.
'As a 3 bed semi your looking at about a tenner' i replied
As he was picking his jaw up off the floor he tells me its far too much,as he used to clean windows 9 years ago and would only charge a fiver!
Just told him things have moved on a little since then!
Then to finish it off he's saying how hard it is to get a reliable windy that turns up more than a couple of times!  :o
Nowt as queer as folk  ;)

Not that long ago a bloke asked me to do his 3 bed semi with conservatory inside and out but said he wouldn't pay more than a tenner.Some people can't get their heads around the fact that window cleaners shouldn't work for next to nothing.
