I can't remember it from the top of my head,

Its something like a=bw2,

Don't quote me on it though.

window cleaners are generally fit and active people. This helps if they need to get away quickly from potential trouble."

Big Jussa isn't, he hasn't moved at a speed exceeding 4mph for over 20 years.

Experience shows that many customers who complain and refuse to pay, sometimes relent when offered a free clean."
