Doubt we will get the heavy snow here Daz. I'll be getting through the work as usual today tomorrow and Saturday as I'll be having the full bank holiday weekend off next week.

just got up to strong gale force winds and driving sleet/snow!


do i fancy waving a 40 ft pole around this morning? ;D ;D ;D

sometimes you gotta admit defeat!and the weather wins hands down today!

its certainly pointless trying to clean windows in this.ill do a bad job and for one its dangerous at 40 ft with a carbon pole!! ;D ;D

looks like im gonna have to be happy with £750 this week. :( :( :(

ive wrote the weekend off too. :( :(

better luck next week lads!!


very best wishes to you all and enjoy the time off!im off swimming in a bit! ;D ;D
