Title: The sun is out, quick! someone clean my windys
Post by: H2GoKent on June 08, 2013, 07:52:48 am
Had a message left on the answerphone yesterday afternoon.
"Hello I live in So and So Very Rough and Fairly Dangerous Road and need someone to clean my windows today please, here is my number"
People make you smile don't they, I think they thought I was waiting for their call and would launch off Wallace and Grommit style.

i had to finish some work off today, and the number of people asking for one offs was ridiculous, picked up 3 or 4 regulars though and must have given out around 10 quotes

Was only on a few roads on a council estate doing about 20 small houses , its good for business but slowed me down massively
im late for a bbq now, wish the missus would dry her hair faster :)
