tried a few domestics today and some parts of hosereels were freezing up, luckily had a few commercials we have brought forward from tuesday to carry out today
had to fit new glow plugs in the combo this morning as well £48!!!
not best start but worrying now for the week ahead may look at getting hot systems fitted midweek
can carry on canvassing and leafletting but not really ideal when no money coming in

Mine's to sit with my feet up and watch the episodes of Top Gear I recorded knowing a week like this would come at some point in the winter.

My plan is to work like normal with one tweak. Keep the water flowing the whole time. In between jobs we will turn the flow nearly all the way down but have water from the brush heads going into buckets. The water in the hoses will not freeze on the ground if the water is flowing.
I bet I will do my weeks money despite the cold.
The above is a great tip, feel free to send me a donation, each one of you that still earns his money each day! ;) ;D

Plan for the week - pray for the snow to go by wed/thurs and work my arse off in the south west...

Not that cold out there here in Costa Del Basingstoke.
My contaminated tank is now empty. Im off out there. ;-0

So feet up, and walk down to my local for some

To put my feet back up
Happy days 8)

Luckily we have just been asked to do a large builders clean which is going to take around 3 days for 3 people, so I've set some of the window cleaning lads away on that this morning, hopefully all the snow and sleet has just about gone by then.

Funnily enough, I haven't had many of those, lately. I must be doing something wrong.
I'll do some ironing instead.

just finished now in south manchester. its been snowing on and off but its no different from rain. has even less of an impact if you ask me. the only excuse is if youre working in rural areas, the main roads are fine
