Title: WFP 14 Trad 1
Post by: groundhog on June 15, 2011, 11:38:25 pm
I was cleaning a big commercial contract of mine today, when I noticed a trad guy accross the road putting his ladder up on a similar building. Straight away my competitive streak kicked in, and I thought lets see how many windows I can clean before he finishes his window!! I waited until he started to soap up the window and off I went like a bat out of hell!!! I managed 14 windows before he finished his one window!!! It would have been more, but I had to stop briefly to take a cup of tea off an old lady who lived at the care home!!! I can't believe people are still messing about with buckets and ladders!!!!!  ;D ;D    8)

Well done.
How many times did you have to re-fill your backpack, doing the 14 windows?

i clean a posh financial consultants place and the women who work there are really fit! ;D ;D

ladders and buckets will still be used in 50 years time!

id laugh groundhog if you had to go back to trad because of a drought order in your area! ;D ;D ;D ;D

i know what you mean though.....

i think to myself "how on earth did i manage to climb up a ladder to EVERY WINDOW just to clean it?"

and now ive got a van mount im thinking "how did i drag that trolley about everywhere for 12 months?" ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

its not that much of an achievement, the tradder probably had to go sign on whilst he was doing the window
