Nice job. I did the inside windows of an old victorian school in Oxford this week. Hadnt been cleaned for at least 10 years according to the Janitor. Windows were black in the  but the biggest pain of the job was removing all of the glue residue left from cellotape and loads and loads of blu tac. Took me two days on my own.

Although it looks like a fairly small school going by the outside pics it still looks like a difficult time consuming job especially with the insides as well.  Rather you than me!
