This however looks ok. Might get one for the windows we clean that get splashed.

they tried to say jack your windy , it took him 20 mins to do the conny ! & they said you could save yourself time ! ,

Also no mention of how the he'll the poor custy was going to get to the top outside windows ,

good bit of kit lol , Could use for internal jobs as quick & doesn't leave a mess ? .

When you thought about it's no threat to windys , as the time they took to do the windows ( just the down stairs ) was same as us & he didnt do the frames ,

It's one of those you buy & leave in the cupboard & forget .
;D

Blimey, off to the shed for me - I'll be a millionaire by monday!
