Great film, but lets see them old boys handling a 22ft carbon pole and a hose snagging on a wheelie bin, they don't know how lucky they were  ;)

When I first went window cleaning an old guy took me out to teach me the ropes, I turned up in t shirt and jeans,  he made me sit in the car and watch and said next time I can wear casual work cloths, but a shirt and tie was casual to him  ;D


Really lovely person, Bless him, I learnt with shammy leathers his still alive he stopped window cleaning when he was in his 80s I think his 97/ 98 still drives all is facilities


Thank goodness wfp or maybe not my waistlines never thanked me

I wonder what happened to the Norwich guy - very forward thinking ( shame it all went downhill since the sixties  ;D )

Loved it.

"Tumblers" when they first start off with 10 foot ladders and after training, "Shiners".
