It's dry here at present, but dark. I had three that needed texting for access last night which I did. I have sent a follow up one this morning saying I may not get to them today. But at the moment it looks alright.  ::)roll

Worked through wind and a bit of rain yesterday.

Several windows dried funny due to wind and grit. Cleaners say glass
Dries fine in wind I disagree with that.

Wet glass. Grit. Dries. No brainer.

It's been blowing and raining since 5 last night and hasn't let up here in west Wales. I did get out and did an almost full day yesterday, but today is the predictable write off. Tomorrow and Friday may be possible, but there is growing concern of a mega-storm according to Radio 4 this morning, due to hit here Friday night into Saturday, with 100mph winds.

According to my weather station we have had 250mm (10 inches) of rain in the last 30 days - Met Office average for here in January is around 75mm (3 inches)...

Personally I've (almost) given up worrying. I'm so far behind now, which is unheard of as I leave spare days for wet weather.

Doesn't seem that bad here in Brighton. Bit windy at the moment but dry with some blue bits in the sky.

Have a job at 10.30 and another at 3.30.

Had a good January hitting my targets so today I'm going to take a nice drive to The Cleaning Warehouse to get some bits and have a look at their wfp systems etc. Then I'm driving to Bridgnorth to meet a girlfriend of mine for lunch!
The joys of being a wc!

Started at 8.30am did 4.  home for an early lunch just before 10am as it started chucking it down. Back out at 12. Still raining so went for a haircut. Done 2 more and got red up so down the snooker club now.

Was hoping to cram a few add on jobs in this week but it's not looking likely now
